had this one on draft while visiting

ok poured out into my glass this one real interesting crazy off colored berry appearance is it a beer or is it a cocktail we shall see

ok aroma is very promising here although a bit sweet you can tell where this one is going heavy syrupy aroma of the berries

taste not soo good having a tough time finishing this one heavy on the fruit flavor but not in a tart refreshing our sour way this one is just straight up sweet and not enough complexity to balance it out

very heavy mouthfeel kind of cloying

overall average at best but nothing like the great framboise i have had prior i think this one was my least favorite of theirs that i had tried

My wife wanted the growler filled with this during our last visit, Poured from growler into a pint glass

A: nice amber color, 1/2" off white head with good retention. Lots of bubbling carbonation

S: tart raspberry, hint of yeast, peppery spice

T: slight peppery note adds slight bitterness. Taste is a little tart, but raspberry does add sweetness. Taste doesn't meet my expectations based on the great aroma.

M: light bodied, a bit chewy in the mouth

O: not a bad beer, not my cup of tea.
