Ripe raspberry rasp juxtaposes soured blueberry-cherry tartness as peppery hops and vegetal earthiness caress wheat spine. Mild tobacco-roasted clover honey sweetness bedecks mild custard finish. Note: quaffed on tap @ Poughkeepsie’s Half Time before brewery bottled for distribution.

Mellow pink-headed ruby-bodied ‘malternative’ betters soda pop or lame wine cooler. Fulsome raspberry signature assaults champagne nose and tutti-frutti tongue. Supportive peach, tangerine, and red cherry tartness perks up sour cranberry-mulberry-strawberry ransom to bittersweet candi-sugared raspberry finish.

Pink-magenta head fades as easy flowin’ raspberry nose confirms fizz-hopped berry permanence, mild cherry tartness, and red grape hint. But soft wheat backbone and soapy finish dilute fructose funk.
