A 330ml bottle with a best before date of 20th April 2017. Poured into a Lost Abbey teku glass.
Appearance: A murky orange colour with a two finger off white head that had pretty good retention and left good lacing.
Aroma: Raspberries with a little dust.
Taste: Raspberries upfront but only for a second. There’s maybe some cream and vanilla mixed with some not so nice butter and a weird chemical like finish.
Mouthfeel: Light to medium bodied with moderate to high carbonation.
Overall: I don’t know, something went wrong here. Aromas were fine, if a little dusty, but taste is where it all went wrong.

A: Huge raspberry aroma, followed by malt, and a hint of oak.
A: Cloudy orange with a pink hue, slight head retention, and a touch of lacing.
F: Raspberries upfront, faint hint of vanilla, fairly aggressive in terms of its hop bitterness.
M: Light-bodied moderate carbonation, moderately attenuated, and some astringency from the oak.
O: Lots of raspberries, if this were a fruit beer, solid. As a cream ale, the beer is a little too aggressive in terms of its hop bitterness and could be a little more attenuated.

Nice hazy pink-peach. Great nose but the grassy hops don't go great, not too strong so the raspberries come through nicely.

Had on tap at a local gastropub. Haven't really had cream stouts so I don't have much to compare it to but both my friend and I tried it and had the same reaction. Tasted like a soda that was opened a month ago and kept in the back of the fridge. No lingering taste, a slightly cream in the beginning but dies flat immediately.

This beer does not sound like it would be good, but the they really pull it off with the combination of raspberries, cream and oaky goodness.
Look- Golden with a tint of red
Smell- Raspberries and oak with a milky creamy smell.
Taste- Delicious raspberries and oak mixed with a creamy golden ale. Delicious.
Mouthfeel- A creamy medium to heavy body perfectly fitting the name of the beer.
Overall- I was very pleasantly surprised when I tried this beer. It is a very enjoyable combination of raspberries, cream, and oak.
