10 oz. can, stylized red and black can with born on dating on the bottom. Poured a clear, very, very pale golden color, with a moutainous head that disappeared before I could put the can down. Smells of artificial fruit flavors, a chalky smell to it that reminds me of Tums.

Tastes like it's trying to be beer, it's just not succeeding very well. A bit of a floral taste that might point to hops, but it was quickly overwhelmed by that artificial fruity taste. Reminds me of a Sobe type fruity energy drink, which, of course, is along the lines of what it's trying to be. Mouthfeel is crisp, but is sticky-sweet as well.

Definitely an interesting 'beer,' but it started giving me a headache after just three drinks. Far too sweet to have high drinkability to me, though people who like sweeter beers may actually enjoy it, I dunno.

It was one of the best beers I've ever tasted, it smelled good and it to affect after about 4 bottles. I think stores should start selling them again, with the same price.
Its nothing negative about this beer. I love the raspberry taste, the energy drink mixed in beer was great.
