Second, out of three, from the LongShot six pack for me.
Hazy straw orange color topped by a rocky two inch head of white bubbles. Chunky lacing rings the top of the glass.
Man, this smells good. Sweet berries backed by a light wheat scent. Not obnoxiously sweet or over the top berries, but done really nicely.
Fruit beers aren't my thing. I usually let my wife finish them off for me. She won't be getting any of this one. Complete 180 from the aroma. Wheat is the strong point, with a nice addition of the boysenberries. Crisp, clean flavor. The fruit is a great complement to the beer.
Medium body with strong carbonation. True to style on the mouthfeel. Slight drying in the aftertaste only makes me want more. This one should make it into their regular rotation. Great job.
