A Note on This Beer

Red velvet cake is an American institution for a reason — it’s freakin’ delicious!

The Energy City crew channeled the raspberry version of that Southern classic when they made today’s 4.36 UT-rated brew. After fermentation, they stuffed a soft, Berliner-style Weisse with juicy berries, chocolate, and vanilla, giving each gorgeous gulp the flavors you know and love.

Nuances of bright and jammy bramble fruit weave through dark chocolate notes in the thick sip. The tangy, biscuity base mingles with whispers of silky vanilla like a layer of cream cheese frosting.

Only this confection comes with a secret 6.5% ABV!

Wanna have your cake and drink it, too? Now you can.

Sooo good. White chocolate and raspberry come through strong. I didn’t notice the instructions to roll the can before opening but I can’t imagine the experience could’ve been much better.

The first thing you taste is the raspberry’s juiciness and then you get the creamy white chocolate/vanilla finish. Sweet enough, great balance, not super fizzy. Big fan

White chocolate comes through heavy. Very thick. White chocolate sweet offsets raspberry sour nicely.

Fantastic. Instead of searching for hints and notes the raspberry flavor is in the forefrint of every sip and ends with chocolaty goodness. Fantastic, half the can gone in no time and didn't even realize.

The creamy flavor was strong and covered up a lot of the sour raspberry flavor. Overall a good desert beer that completely covers up any alcohol being consumed.

Really good fruited weisse. Sweet, but has the right amount of tart to go with it.
