Brewers Notes:

This is a wonderful, refreshing, easy to make summer beer. There is only a slight hint of raspberries. The raspberry seeds, etc float and went right through my bottle filler. Maybe try to filter them out? Most of the floaties end up with the yeast at bottom of bottle. ENJOY and let me know if you try this one. Cost about $30 CAD.
