19/2/2019. Bottle from Four Hops, Reigate. Pours golden amber with an off-white head. Aroma of fresh raspberry, raspberry jelly, straw, hops, wheat and vanilla. Medium sweetness, light bitterness, hint of tartness. Moderate body, slight oily texture, above average carbonation. Light bittersweet fruit finish. Not bad.

Bottle from a bottle shop in Whitstable. Poured a hazy reddish amber with a frothy white head. The aroma is yeast, big raspberry. The flavour is moderate sour with a dry crisp, acidic citrus, raspberry palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. A little one dimensional as the raspberry really dominates, but fairly drinkable all the same.

330 ml bottle. Slightly hazy pink/golden body topped by a big, fluffy white head with shades of pink. Not very strong aroma of raspberry and yeast. Flavor is slightly sweet and light acidic berries with wheat and traces of spices. Medium body and average aftertaste. OK, it’s supposed to be a raspberry wheat and deliver what it is, the berries feels real and not artificial. On the other hand, I personally don’t think wheat/golden ales with berries are a good idea.

Bottle split at JF’s, thanks to James, 23/08/13. Hazed dark amber/cherry red with a forthy light crimson topping. Nose is berry fruits, sugar syrup solution, raspberry jam, light soap. Taste comprises light berry fruit tones, toasted malts, light wheat, grain. Medium bodied, fine carbonation. So so affair, guess it could be refreshing on a hot day but hmmm .... had a lot worse mind!

Bottle. Pours a semi-hazy, light ruby with a fine, white head. Weak aroma of wheat and sour fruit. Flavor is faintly sweet, with tangy fruits. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Finishes with some lingering citric tartness. Not a big fan.

Cask@GBBF2010. Rather dull murky reddish brown colour with small beige head. Aroma is raspberries, some wheat and mild yeasty and herbal notes. Flavour is mild wheat and raspberries with some herbal and wooden notes along with it. Somehow the raspberries and wheat in this one clash in a rather evil way. Sorry, but no thanks.
