16 oz can poured, picked up at Hop and Hound. A glowing, cherry red pour, plenty of haze and lasting foam head. I'll never tire from trying new raspberry brews. I feel like you can add them to any style, and create something great. A nice, fruity, berry constant, but this doesn't abandon the IPA style by any means. A citrus like hop bitterness that really pairs well with the barely sweet raspberry addition. Jam like aroma. This drinks especially smooth, and delicious. I love this brew. Really hope this isn't a one time deal.

On tap at Wander, pours a cloudy bright pinkish red with a small white head. Aroma brings out loads of fresh raspberries, complementing the citrus hops. Flavour is fairly well-integrated, with bright, tart, pithy raspberries, astringently bitter citrusy hops, and a crisp biscuity malt. Raspberries are used well, but it's still not the most natural of harmonies here. Works pretty well, but there are some clashing notes.
