Testing Fruit Enhanced Ale

Ales with fruit are not generally on my radar but these are generally Audrey's favorite. I'm testing this one solo as Audrey is off traveling in Charleston, SC.
Wild Ale Raspberry: Color-Light red Nose-Fruity First taste-Strong raspberry taste; fast fade Observations-Nice back throat surge Where Brewed? Denver, Colorado Cost-71 cents per 12 ozs. (discounted at food co-op) Style-Ale fermented w/raspberries Fizziness-Frothy; fast moving active bubbles Saying-"Great Minds Drink Alike" Ingredients-Red and black raspberries; A balance of malt and fruit flavors Brewery-Great Divide Brewing Co. Aftertaste-Good memories Rating-7.25
FINAL THOUGHT- Audrey tried this before her trip to SC; did not rate it but found it representative of its' type. Not my area of favorite beer tasting.
