a nice combination, porter with the red raspberry fruit added. Good sipper, good to share as 500 ml a lot. Tart to sour taste. Fun, worth trying or sampling.

Pours a black and ruby color. Maybe 1 finger of foam that dies down after a couple minutes at most. N o lacing. Taste is what you would expect. Sour ale with lots of raspberries. I like raspberries so i enjoyed this beer. Doesn't taste artificial at all. I'm pretty sure they use real raspberries. This is a good one, but for only those who like sour ales. I think is is better than their regular Donkey Venom beer, but that's because I like the raspberry taste. I'm getting used to these sour ales now. I wasn't a fan of them at first but they have really grew on me.

Update: I did buy again and it's even better than I originally thought. Same batch few months later. Just as good. This is a real winner but you have to like Sour ales and raspberries.
