UFO Raspberry Hefeweizen is our own interpretation of the European practice of adding fruit flavors to wheat beers. We have added natural raspberry flavor to our UFO Hefeweizen to give it a delicate fruit flavor and slight sweetness. The raspberry juice adds a rich color to the cloudy, unfiltered beer, yielding a soft reddish hue. The scent of the berries mixes with the lightly hopped beer aroma. The raspberries are balanced by UFO Hefeweizen’s clean, wheat beer taste, making this beer enjoyable and refreshing.

    Poured out cloudy with rusty red color with a head that vanishes almost instantly. The aroma is very mild mostly of wheat with a slight hint of raspberry. I drank this when it was 94 degrees and found it refreshing but nothing special.

    This was Ok. The berry aroma was probably the best part the flavor was a bit of unripe raspberries which came off bitter. Nothing special in the appearence kind of dull pink and cloudy. OK to try but There are better Harpoon offerings.

    WTF is up with all the "fruit beer"? If it was good, I wouldn't be so harsh, but this is just absolutely nasty. Cloudy, musty, funky - in every respect. Gez, save the fruit for a cheesecake and use the basics - malt, barley, water and hops for beer.

    It pours a cool cloudy peach color with a big foamy white head that makes sweet lace patterns on my hefeweizen glass. Perfume like raspberry hits the nose as the bottle is opened. The flavor and body were very light and thin. The flavor has some tart raspberry with hints of lemon and melon. The palate is to light and thin with some light fizzy carbonation. The finish is abrupt and leaves me wanting something more. Overall it has a good taste but lacks depth and body.

    Very hazy in the bottle. Pours a slightly red/amber and remains hazy in the glass. Distinctly raspberry aroma and taste. Don't think I could make it thru a whole bottle of this but then again, I'm not a huge fruit beer fan. Above average for the style but not something I would buy regularly.

    Bottled. Murky red/orange colour with big creamy white head. Raspberry and slight wheat all the way through the beer. Some mild hoppyness comes along in the finish.
