This beer is one for the experimental category! Dubbed by Dogfish Head as a beer as "complex as a red wine brewed with beet sugar, green raisins, and Belgian-style yeast," this is something that I would not normally order up. The raisin flavor is apparent at the outset, and the beer is spread across a strange spectrum of rather dull flavors. Definately adventurous, but not in a good way. The complexity of the beer is achieved in the amount of flavors contributed by the odd ingredients, but I'm not sure that is necessarily a good thing. There is just too much going on, and the raisin flavor dominated the beer throughout. Overall, a C, with a bonus point for attempting to be creative!
