Pours a cloudy pale golden color with a half inch fluffy white head. The head dissipates quickly leaving a thin layer of foam resting on top.
The aroma is unusual. Wheat and berry scents are what I am getting off the aroma.
The taste is just as unique as the aroma. Wheat flavors quickly blend into a berry type flavor that continues into the finish. The berry reminds me of raspberry. Some clove and honey like sweetness in the finish.
Light body with medium carbonation. Watery and smooth mouthfeel with a very drinkable nature.
An enjoyable summer beer. Very drinkable and refreshing. The raspberry flavors are nice for a change and adds a little something extra on a hot summer day.

Beer Notes
Elder Betty is a weiss-style ale with a bready malt flavor balanced by a touch of hops and complimented by the tart berry flavors of elderberry.
"You can't be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline. It helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer." - Frank Zappa
