12 oz. can from Total Wine. Sunny pink hue? Nope! Pours an opaque, muddy orange-gold color with a tiny white head and poor retention. Zero lacing. Light lemonade aroma. The flavor has more raspberry taste than the aroma, finishing with a tart lemon bite. More of a tart fruit soda than a fruit beer. Too tart and not enough beer flavor for me. Light body. Medium carbonation. No bitterness.

From a can shows up as a off pale hazy orange tinted brew. Smell is very pretty, just like an attractive women's mildly fruity perfume. First taste? A kick in the jaw, nothing like the nose would leave you to believe. Does not taste like the lips of that pretty girl who was wearing the perfume, this stuff just comes across as another dull fruit beer. Actually, I'm quite surprised! Was expecting a mellow tart thing that tastes like raspberry lemonade, a radler shandy perhaps, mind you. But no, this is a typical domestic fruit beer. Smells good, but it's just a big dull fruity whack in the face. It also comes across a little volatile & boozy, like its more near 6% or more. I'm glad it's not fruity and sweet, it's just that it was unexpected from the label and the nose. Overall, tho fruity, it was very difficult to pick out the tase of raspberry and lemon in this.
