Tasted on 5/13/2018 by Brewer 112722

Notes:

Initial taste: very try, sharp raspberry flavor. That was disappointed and would only have earned 1 star; I was concerned about having to drink 5 gal! HOWEVER, I added ~ 4oz of lemonade to the 2nd one I tasted, and it was DELICIOUS! Fantastic summer beer, good raspberry flavor. Next time i brew, i will up the maltodextrin in the initial boil and add some lemon juice to mimic adding lemonade.
