Twisted Pine Brewing Company's Raspberry Wheat

Drinking this one in the middle of the day so I can cover it up with other beers later--like that DR11 I just scored.

Pours a very slightly hazy yellow to light amber. Big foamy head that I'm hoping will go away, and makes me wonder if I need to switch dishwasher soaps. We'll have to try out that theory with a few more beers. Very strong carbonation despite the foaming and despite the fact that it has to be almost two years old--I've been avoiding it for a while.

Yup. Raspberry and wheat. Has a zippy wheat smell that is just right though.

Same in the taste, but without the wheat zip. The raspberry just drags it down.

It has to be right on style, but why there are beers like this I will never understand. It is not pleasant to drink.

Molson Coors Brewing Company's Amber Moon

I refuse to reference this as 'Blue Moon Brewing Company,' just out of spite if for no other reason. I was impressed by Blue Moon when I first had it though, so I'm hoping for the best out of this one too.

Pours a nice, clear amber. The light tan head never really forms, which isn't unusual for a wheat.

Nice amber smell to it, with a good wheat twang. About like I'd expect from an amber wheat, of which this is the only class member that I know of.

A bit too sweet in the taste. It's brewed with lime leaves and limes, and I think it's a bit over done. Otherwise it has a nice feel and would make a great amber/wheat, but it's just another example of a beer that's overly flavored.
