Postmortem Brew Review
Cloudy, unfiltered, reddish hued color.
Distinct raspberry nose; smells natural and fresh.
Slight yeast smell as in bread.
White
, foamy two fingered head that dissipates very slowly.
Head lacing coats entire glass.
Moderate carbonation with sweet berry taste.
Light
bodied; tartness in finish.  Easy drinker.

Grim Reaper's Eulogy
Very good for a fruity change of pace over other hefe's.  This is light and easy to session.  Nothing more, or less to add other than this would be great on hot days as a refreshing substitute for a wine cooler or cider.  Since it's a beer, that makes it all the more special.
