What Our Editors Thought
“A natural raspberry nose—soft and grounded—gives way to a bright sip with a bracing burst of lactic acidity, gently supported by tannic and sweet fruit notes. The perfect perception of sweetness in an otherwise dry beer.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Candy-like sweet jammy raspberry aroma, with a beautiful pink lasting head, creates anticipation. Luxurious raspberry aroma alongside tannins with a layer of vanilla. Bright, almost jammy raspberry-filling flavor coats the mouth. Acidity is noticeable but not harsh, and moderately full body is a canvas to showcase the fruit.”
What the Brewers Say
“It’s tart like the fruit but also crisp and refreshing.”
