Appears a light gold that looks like a macro lager with a small white head that fizzles out. Little lacing is left behind.
Smell is of light, crispy wheat and some sweet raspberries that smell just right for a flavored beer.
Taste is a crisp light wheat with a sugary sweet raspberry that isn't offensive but rather delightful. Perhaps a tint of tartness that cuts out before it can become a negative.
Mouthfeel is crisp, light, sugary sweet, and semi-dry.
Drinkability is highly enjoyable for a fruit beer. One of the better ones that I've had that doesn't try to do anything too weird. Seems that most of the breweries in this region make this style and they all seem to be decent in their own way. My biggest complaint is that the beer is served in a frosted 20 oz. mug and it's served a bit too cold for my liking. For $2 though, is there a better deal? Quite simply, no. Order it, let it catch up to room temp, enjoy.

Appearance: Cloudy, light yellow body with neither head nor lacing.
Smell: Sweet raspberry nose - smells like a raspberry rickey. It's an enjoyable smell once you give up trying to seek out any malts or hops. But I think that the underlying beer style should also be apparent.
Taste: Tastes like a raspberry fruit box. Again, this is enjoyable if that is what you are seeking but a fruit beer should be a beer with fruit flavor not a fruit juice drink.
Mouthfeel: Very light and crisp; nicely carbonated.
Drinkability: This is a very refreshing fruity beverage that is very drinkable but probably will not appeal to many beer drinkers. My guess is that it is popular with the tourist crowd, particularly those that like fruit flavored drinks. I would give it lower marks if I were judging it at a competition but I wouldn't mind drinking it after a very hot day at the beach.

Not sure of the style rating,,,but , damn this brew is sweet.
The body is approaching full...lightly murky as well. The nose is raspberry, the head is large and the carbonation is limited.
Does nothing for me, so sweeet.
Beer, I think not...but, there are those that can appreciate this style.
