The Raspberry Ale was one of the 4 seasonals they were offering at the brewpub. Served in a standard pint, the beer is a hazy straw with an off-white head. It had really decent lacing.
It has a big aroma of raspberries and in the background grains. I can smell it from 2 feet away.
The taste is raspberries overlaid over what I'm guessing is a blonde ale. There is some perfumery hops and grainy bread, but the berries rule the roost. Nothing tastes artificial or off.
The mouth is crisp with powerful carbonation. This works for this beer as it seems to keep it from becoming to sweet or cloying. It is an easy drinker but not a session beer.
Later in the night I had the bartender do ½ of this mixed with their stout. That was awesome.
