$2.75 at main street bar and grill in aliquippa. Never thought I try this but, I asked for something different and she served this up. I was expecting a sweet beer, wheat and raspberry and all. Was a little disappointed in the flavor. Just your typical american beer with a little non sweetened raspberry flavor added. Not impressed. Not my cup of tea.

12oz bottle Pours out a hazy amber with very little head. Alot of carbonization almost like a soda. Not that very much ras in this berry beer.

Perfectly clear light golden color, with moderate head - spicy, floral hop aroma, with mild pilsner malt coming through in the background - lightly buttery, but beyond that not much of a malt profile - mostly some herbal/grassy notes and a mellow hop presence - finishes with light, bready malt, but otherwise ends kind of thin - a so-so pilsner.

Pleasing lemony hop aroma, lightly soapy, weak bready malts. Off gold with minimal head and carbonation. A spike of hop flavors up front doesn’t do much, quickly rounding into a vague, blandish sweetness. Finish begins as a tingle of carbonation, a light dab of hops and then nothing at all. Overally pretty flavorless.

Nose of fruity caramelly malt; light amber color with a medium yellow-tinged head that didn’t hang around too long; flavor show some malt but also buttery diacetyl, which I don’t really care for.

Nose of tart malt with some raspberry esters; Hazy pink tinged amber with a small white head; flavor was tart raspberry with some wheatiness. Kind of watery body, Not great but it is my first beer from Louisiana!

Clear yellow to copper color. Doesn’t seem even close to amber in color. Thin head. Weak aroma. I smell almost nothing. I taste some really nice hop bitterness that pushes it out of style a bit. There is some caramel flavor notes that are a little less sweet than I’d expect. Nice light beer that kind of misses the Amber Lager style. Really could use more body.

Crystal clear yellow color with white head. Some decent hop and sweet malt aromas. Smells like a pilsner. Light tasting beer that tastes like a pilsner. Very light with no real flavor flaws. Not too bad.

On tap @ Mellow Mushroom. Kind of pink in color with small white head. Aroma seems like bitter grapefruit and some sweet citrus. Flavor is a little like candy. I taste sweet berry flavor followed by some dryer malts and some tartness around my tongue. Good light weight summer day brew.
