Crisp golden coloured body with a slight ghostly haze with a thinnish, relatively fast-dying off-white head that only shows a centimetre or so in height before fading. Aroma of very strong toasted marshmallow and sugars with a dash of wheat and oats and a lot of raspberries here, that are on the light and tart side, but definitely noticeable in a nice way, that doesn't overpower at all. Light-bodied; Very crisp and easy-drinking wheatie malts show at first and provide enough of a backbone to the tart and soured raspberry notes, but balanced effectively by the soft sugars from the marshmallows, but the toast notes show strongest, in a nice way. Aftertaste is pretty clean drinking with very mild malts and a lot of the soured, tart raspberries and even more of the toasted marshmallows, all going down very easily. Overall, a very nice and robust, elegant, clean and easy-drinking beer with a nice set of flavours and even better complexity, especially at the end. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Glen Ro in Monroe, Connecticut on 25-November-2022 for US$4,49 sampled on the streets of New York, New York with my wife and kids here on 15-January-2023.
