124. Sea Dog Raspberry Wheat Ale

I had a very bad Monday night for beer with 2 beers that have been added to my least favorite list. This one probably is not as bad as I think it was but I do not like raspberries and this seems to be an average beer with artificial raspberry flavoring added after. The head was very large and stuck around. Color was very clear but the taste was average with an extended aftertaste.
Pros: 
Cons: Aftertaste lingers for a long time and taste seems artificial
Alcohol Content: 4.5% ABV
Calories: ???
IBU (Bitterness): ??

Rating: ★☆☆

Brewers Description: Sea Dog Raspberry Wheat Ale is a dry, crisp refreshing ale with the added essence of raspberries.

72. Sea Dog Wild Blueberry


Blueberries are far from my favorite fruit so this review may be a little harsh. Pours a great golden color with a nice head but that disappeared within seconds leaving a very flat look in the glass. I thought maybe the beer had expired as I purchased at a local convenience store but in checking the label it was best before February 2012. Minimal carbonation and aroma was that of a blueberry bagel. Taste was not much better, I felt like I was drinking beer while eating a blueberry bagel and that just seems wrong. If you like blueberries your experience with this beer may be entirely different. 
Pros: Color
Cons: Flat, too sweet 
Alcohol Content: 4.6% ABV
Calories: ???
