Ridiculously pink and purple coloured body with a thinnish single centimetre tall light purple, and beet coloured head, but the amount of raspberries in here, simply due to the colour of the body must be massive. Aroma of icing sugar, raspberries (duh!) with a sour and lemon note, some tart grain, a larger dose of yeast and some hay and vanilla that make this amazing smelling with of course the bunches of fruit that stand far and away the strongest throughout. Light to Medium-bodied; Super strong rapsberry pulp flavours with some lemons, grain, icing sugar, vanilla, grain, yeast and ending with a light grassy and herbal, almost woodsy like flavour that seemingly only exacerbates the raspberry pulpiness, in a great way. Aftertaste is quite pungent with the amazing raspberry notes, a lot of tart, soured fruits with a smooth, but noticeable sweetness and complex dry and earthy notes that make this enjoyable and robust throughout. Overall, a very nice tart beer that shows well as a fresh-fruit based beer, but t his could probably become quite complex over time in the bottle as the tart and complexity from the yeast is very noticeable throughout. Great to sample and well worth trying to find if you are anywhere close to the area! I sampled this 75 cL bottle purchased from BeerTopia in Omaha, Nebraska for just US$6,99 on 06-November-2018, sampled at my hotel room in Downtown Omaha, Nebraska on 09-November-2018.
