I've been lazy with reviews lately. Notes are from yesterday.

This beer is a clear deep orange-red with a ruddy bronze hue. A soft white head is pretty thick but fades fairly quickly. Spotty lacing is moderate.
The aroma is raspberry, like fresh juice, tart with light sweetness. There's not too much beer character, though.
The taste is about the same; there's a bit of grains and a trace of malts, but otherwise this is almost raspberry soda if not for a touch of citrus hops notes pulling through. It fortunately doesn't go too sour like some.
The body is light to medium, sharply crisp with a moderately smooth feel developing from tingling carbonation.

Looks like a pink lemonade shandy. A lot of sweetened lemon candy going for it in the aroma, with some of that berry Kool Aid packet going for it.

Man this is like sugar packets and nerds candy. Nothing in terms of hops, malt, yeast going for it. Gives sweet more than honey or raspberry too.

I can only further report that this beer is essentially a failure.
