Berry, berry quite contrary. What a summer blast!
For a beer that pours a hazy dark pink of red grapefruit, this beer seems a little light on fruit flavor. The thin, light head dissipated quickly.
The beer’s aroma was quite intruiging with lots of very fresh, and very forward, raspberry aroma. It also featured a very light, dry malt background with a spritzy finish that made you look forward to the next sip.
The dryness of the beer, light bitterness, and fresh fruit notes in the aroma make it a very approachable, easy-drinking beer. This is definitely an American style ale, without the sour notes of Belgium lambics.
