3.17/5  rDev -1.2%
look: 2.5 | smell: 3 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3 | overall: 3
Presentation: Poured from a 12oz brown bottle into a standard pint glass. The label contains no information about brewing date, but it does mention an original gravity of 12 degrees P. Three, big, plump raspberries are prominently featured on the center of the label.

Appearance: I was surprised, but this poured with absolutely no head whatsoever, looks like a cider. Not sure of how it is made, but I would think their would be enough protein to at least sustain a minimal head. I have had this several times before in the bottle, but never bothered to pour it. The beer itself is a slightly hazy, pink hued tan.

Smell: Wheat tang is on the forefront of the nose. Just a hint of raspberry.

Taste: An initial flavor of raspberries, nice, not too sweet and not too tangy. Followed by the slight sour tang of wheat brews. Little to no bitterness in the finish. Anice carbonation bite helps deliver and round it all out.

Mouthfeel: Average to higher than average carbonation level. Average mouthfeel.

Drinkability: The raspberry flavor gives a nice boost to the wheat tang. Not an everyday drinker for me, but this style can be nice when it is warm outside.

Poured from 12oz bottle into glass. No bottling date information found.
Cloudy, raspberry/guava colored body. Just a skiff of head upon pouring. Exists with a tiny thin ring fed by rising bubbles. No lacing.
Aroma is mostly raspberry.
Taste is raspberry jam with the sharp twang of the wheat.
Thin to medium mouth feel. Okay carbonation.
To me there is a flavor clash between the sweeter, tart raspberry fruit and the sharp twang of the wheat. Refreshing but the end note is flat and off putting.

12 FL. OZ. bottle
Served in a weizen glass

This beer pours a pinkish hue with burnt orange highlights. It is topped with an inch of off white head that leaves a few spots of lacing.

It has a big raspberry nose.

There is plenty of raspberry in the flavor. The base beer is still recognizable though.

Medium mouthfeel

This hits the spot after working outside for 10 hours on a hot, spring day.
