12oz can courtesy of BBThunderbolt. No date on the can.
Poured into a shaker pint glass, this was a clear,ruby red color, with a good sized, sudsy, pink head.
Sweet and tart raspberry aroma. No wheat aroma could be detected.
Sweet and tart raspberry flavor up front and in charge. Slightly more sourness in the background than in the nose, and there's a lemony flavor splash towards the finish. Things end quite dry.
Light and slightly crisp mouth feel.
If you like raspberries and sours, you'll like this beer. If you saw "weisse" and was looking forward to a wheat beer, you may be disappointed. After a highly smoky and unseasonably warm September day, it's quite refreshing and hitting the spot.

12-ounce can gifted by BBThunderbolt and poured into an English tulip-style half pint. Date stamp reads 06/22/21.
Look:
The body is a cloudy pink the color of ruby red grapefruit juice. A thin off-white head quickly reduces to a persistent collar of foam.
Smell:
The nose is full of lush, sweet raspberries with a bright tartness and a low-key, rather doughy funk at the back.
Taste:
Delivers all the raspberries promised by the nose, with a touch less sweetness than expected. Fruit carries all the way through to the finish, where it is briefly and temporarily upstaged by a burst of sour lemon. The lemon gives way to a bit of doughy, grainy character that provides a great platform for a last burst of raspberries.
Feel:
The beer has a medium body which is lightened by the finely-textured and peppy carbonation.
Overall:
If you like raspberries, pick up a can of Boundary Bay Razz Vice. It is a lively, semi-dry and quenching beer which is packed full of raspberry aroma and flavor. Not too sweet, not too tart. An excellent beer for a blazing afternoon where long-standing temperature records are the only part of the weather that's dropping.

12oz can (dated 6/28/20) poured into 14oz teku. poured a solid dark pink color with 1/4 inch of light ping head that low retention and lacing.
Strong raspberry dominates the nose, with some underlying tartness.
Same on the tongue, mostly raspberry, with just a touch of base grains.
The body was fuller than average for the style, a bit thick due to the berries, and had a semi-dry finish.
Drinkability was good, pretty nice on a warm afternoon.
Overall, a pleasant little brew. worth a shot if you see it.
