Hazy pinkish amber with a strong head. Fabulous dry-hop citrus nose. Light wheaty body with light raspberry notes. Smooth, easy drinking beer.

Another CANBIF treasure. Delicious, pink, authentic fruit taste - much better than a Shock Top, for example. The wheat character is hidden by the fruit, but that is a minor distraction. Overall, this is a well made beer - I have truly enjoyed everything I have tasted from this brewery!

Cloudy and murky amber/orange color with low activity but lots of floating detritus including what seems to be seeds. Foamy light beige 3 finger head, lasting around 5 minutes, with decent leggings and swirl effect. Flavors of raspberries, pumpkin, orange, light caramel, sweet grains, wheat, and herbal hops. Slick full body with a moderate crisp. Light strength finish, lightly grainy and wheathy, slightly tart from the fruits, ends with balanced leafy hops that feels like autumn and flowers. Good freshness and drinkability though highly accessible. A subtle fruit beer that could be more intense, although you can feel the quality of the ingredients. Overall very good quality craft.

L- Pours a very pale yellow with a hint of "raspberry" pink. Topped by a 1/2 finger foamy white head that fades away fairly quickly, leaving small fizzy patches behind. Light patches of lacing.

S- Tart raspberry balanced out completely with a floral hop note.

T- A fantastic punch of fresh raspberry followed by a nice and light florality. More of the sweetness comes through in the taste compared with the aroma, but it's completely appropriate and not overly sweet.

F- Solid full-bodied brew, accompanied by light but steady carbonation.

O- First off, I should say that I'm much more a fan of a bone-shakingly bitter IPA or a dark, roasty Stout than I am of a sweet Fruit beer. Despite this fact, I really enjoyed Trailway's Beyond Reality.
Other than the body, I didn't really get any hints that this was indeed a Wheat Ale as the label description points out, but I anticipate that most of wheat's hallmarks were lost in the delicious raspberry flavours. Seldom do you come across a fruit beer that tastes so fresh and authentic. Aside from the fruit flavour, the brew is very well balanced with an appropriate floral hoppiness. Buy it while it's fresh and enjoy folks!

Can: Poured a hazy light pink/purple color ale with a nice large foamy head with OK retention and light lacing. Aroma of fresh raspberry notes with light tart notes and floral undertones is pretty enticing. Taste is a refreshing mix of fresh raspberry notes with light tart notes and floral citrusy undertones. Body si full with good carbonation. Super-well balanced mix of raspberry and El Dorado hops makes for an enjoyable beer.
