12 ounce can into a pilsner glass. Canned 9/14/17, had 1/24/18.
All foam on the open. Settles- not quickly, into a pale, clear, golden color. Second pour is about as foamy. Smells of raspberry. Not the fresh kind, it’s like flavoring. Light malt, very light yeast. The taste is light malt, lightly bitter hops, some of that raspberry stuff, a hint of caramel. It’s better when the berries fade. Smooth, a decent light body, a little over carbonated (ahem).
Not a fan of the style to begin with, and it wasn’t very fresh, but this is just not good. In fairness, the label did say that it was real raspberries.

Champagne-like mouthfeel. very light and bright appearance with a pink hue. raspberry is present by not over-the-top. The is a very drinkable beer. A solid summer brew.

Opens with a whoosh, seems a bit over gassed. Pours an amber hued pink with a thumb of pearl colored head, seems like Chablis.
Stays effervescent, no head retention or lacing (3.5)
S: Raspberry, nothing else (3.25)
T: Raspberry flavor, light bready & grainy notes, a little strawberry up front. Faint tartness, strawberry jam notes, a little raspberry as this warms. Finishes with a little tartness, some raspberry & not much else (3.25)
MF: Light bodied, lively carbonation, works for what they were going for here, a little wetness (3.75)
Drinks easy, but nothing special. I bet it will sell well, seems right the alley of lot drinkers around here (3.50)
