Jackie O's raspberry wheat — natural raspberry purée added during fermentation, a rosy haze in the glass, a sticky pink head. Continuum of sour-sweet held together by a wheat backbone.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Jackie O's Razz Wheat

Appearance

A luminous pale straw with a rosy-pink cast, hazed throughout by suspended yeast and natural fruit particulate. The sticky pink head settles to a thin, persistent collar. Fine carbonation drives gentle streams of bubbles upward, lending the glass a vibrant, summery presence.

Aroma

Fresh raspberry purée dominates the nose—tart and jammy without artificial character. Beneath lies a soft wheat grain note, almost bread-like, with gentle spice from the yeast. No hop bite; instead, a subtle tartness frames the fruit, creating an inviting fruit-forward profile.

Taste

Raspberry and wheat enter together on a refreshingly tart palate. The mid-palate balances sour-sweet in equal measure, with the wheat backbone lending structure and a gentle creaminess. A light body keeps the beer nimble; residual fruit sweetness plays against natural fermentation tartness, finishing clean without cloying.

Finish

Medium-short and dry, with raspberry tartness lingering pleasantly on the palate. A whisper of wheat remains as the fruit fades, leaving a refreshing, fruit-tinged afterthought rather than a heavy residue.
