What Our Editors Thought
The nose blends the expected raspberry with a touch of tannic, almost-blueberry depth. The sip is all raspberry, though, in an intense but real fruit way that captures a touch of greenness along with seed and skin lower notes. Rich but singular in its raspberry approach.
What Our Panel Thought
The aroma is a bowl of fresh-picked raspberries, reminiscent of those found in the wild. The raspberry flavor is on the sweeter and slightly syrupy side, with a bit of funk in the background. Lingering tannin in the finish adds to the complexity. Pleasantly tart, mildly acidic. Fruit character complements the base beer well.
What the Brewers Say
Single-batch sour with extra raspberry puree!
