Treat yourself to a rare delight. The voluminous raspberry bouquet will greet you long before your lips touch your glass. Serve this Wisconsin framboise very cold in a champagne flute. Then hold your glass to a light and enjoy the jewel-like sparkle of a very special ale.
Oregon proudly shares their harvest of mouth watering berries, which we ferment spontaneously in large oak vats. Then we employ Wisconsin farmed wheat and year old Hallertau hops to round out this extravaganza of flavor.

Appearance: Dark ruby, good light pink head.
Smell: Raspberry and pretty strong tartness.
Taste: Tart and acidic with the raspberries in the background. Mix of tart and raspberries in the finish. Light bodied.
Overall: The other mainstay fruit beer from New Glarus, Raspberry Tart follows its name and provides a tart raspberry experience. I would have preferred more raspberry and less tart, but oh well. I prefer the Belgian red.

(12 oz bottle, obtained at the brewery two days ago... poured into a clear, plastic cup)
Cloudy, raspberry red liquid; some lasting foam in the form of a collar... redolent raspberry on the nose... raspberry pie on the palate, fruit and dough; approaching fruit shrub in its acidity; mesmerizing dimension and expression of the raspberry flavor... the tart tingle invigorates my senses; its body has a lazy plushness to it, almost but not quite nectary... an aptly named beer; this was my first time having it in about 9 years, and I was in heaven; looking forward to sharing some with friends back home (2186)

The beer pours a dark red with a beige-like head that offers wonderful lacing. The aroma is of raspberry preserves and berry pie. Lovely flavor balance with both sweetness and tartness being present. Chewy mouth feel and long tart aftertaste. A really tasty sour.

What do I say about one of the best beers of all time. It's a shame that it's only available in Wisconsin but probably a good one for my body since it would be stocked all the time if I could get it

I had stayed away from this beer thinking it would be really sour/tart. It is not. Just enough tartness so that it is not overly sweet. Will put this one on repeat buy list.

Poured from a bottle into a pint glass. Pours deep red with an off white-red head. Smells of raspberries, very inviting. Tastes of creamy raspberry, nice and sweet, yet nice and tart. Beer is light bodied and easy drinking, good carbonation. Overall, a very good beer.

Poured from a 12-ounce bottle into a Zwanze 2018 logo stemmed goblet because it seemed like the right thing to do. The color approximates a murky and slightly watered-down cola, with a short snow-white head that left lots of spotty lacing. No question in my mind as to why this is among the top-rated beers of its style. It's fruit forward, with lovely aromas of raspberry jam balanced with notes of light breadiness. It's sweet, but not cloying. It's tart, but not overpowering. It has good carbonation and very low bitterness. It finishes perfectly dry. This made an ideal pairing with grilled chicken, and I could imagine that it would be absolutely stellar with crackers and aged Wisconsin cheddar. The only downside is that it's available only in Wisconsin, but who doesn't like a nice road trip once in a while?

This is very close to what I imagine a raspberry soft drink would taste like. It's very sweet, which in my opinion is the biggest downside, but otherwise is an amazing beer. Definitely more sweet than a typical fruit lambic or the belgian red.
