Notes:
We have added natural raspberry flavor to our UFO Hefeweizen to create this beer. Consistent with the hefeweizen style, this beer is unfiltered and cloudy with a solid foamy head. UFO Raspberry has a distinctive, hazy rose color. The scent of fresh raspberries hits the nose immediately, along with a subtle bready aroma from the wheat and yeast. The body is light and the unfiltered yeast provides a soft mouthfeel. The taste of the fruit compliments the beer nicely, neither overwhelms the other. There is a faint sweetness on the palate, which finishes cleanly in a semi-dry, tart finish.

Served in a bottle poured into a pint glass.
A- Very pink kool-aid like coloring to it with a little bit of white head.
S- Raspberry scent. Somewhat sweet and wheat like as well.
T- Very nice balance between the raspberry and the rest of the beer. The only negative is that you can taste the wheat too much. Very good beer though. Not too sweet.
M- Very smooth beer, though it is a tad bitter, but not too hoppy by any means.
D- Very drinkable beer. The fruit flavor is not overpowering at all. Can definitely have several of theses in a sitting.
Overall a very solid beer. Great raspberry flavoring without being too overpowering. The only big negative is the wheat like flavor that is somewhat dominant in the beer.

A: The beer is hazy yellowish-rosé in color and has a moderate amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a quarter finger high thin off white head that died down, leaving a thin layer of bubbles covering the surface and a ring of bubbles around the edge of the glass.
S: Light to moderate aromas of raspberry juice and wheat are present in the nose.
T: The taste is similar to the smell and has slight hints of sweetness.
M: It feels light-bodied (but not watery) on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is very easy to drink and the raspberry aromas and flavors help to spice up hat would be a pedestrian American Pale Wheat Ale.

Enjoy By 05/15/13
A: Pours a hazy amber color with a quickly fizzling head that lasts about 2 seconds
S: Plenty of sweet raspberry with some yeast character and light maltiness
T: Again, lots of sweet (almost artificial) raspberry with wheat and yeast undertones. Not much else
M: Light-medium bodied with high carbonation
O: Almost like wheaty, yeasty raspberry soda. Not much like beer at all. Not bad though. Easy enough to drink, but leaves this one for the girls who enjoy sweet fruity malt beverages
