Tasting Notes (2)

Scratch

Tasted on 8/7/2015 by Scratch

Notes:

Red color with a foamy pink head. Strong raspberry aroma and flavor with a touch of wheat. Very crisp and slightly tart. Next time cut raspberry amount by 1/4 lb.

Tasted on 7/2/2014 by Scratch

Notes:

Cloudy dark red color with two fingers worth of lingering head. Fair amount of lacing. Raspberry aroma with a touch of wheat malt. Black raspberry and wheat malt flavor. A touch of sweetness from the Honey Malt with some tartness at the finish. Medium bodied and crisp with a very fizzy amount of carbonation. A very good beer. I'm going to make this a regular summer brew.
