Following my review of Tiny Rebel's Stay Put Mint Chocolate Chip, next up is their other Covid-19 lockdown limited edition marshmallow porter - Raspberry Ripple.
It's a very dark, almost black beer with a small, very loose beige head that pretty much vanishes as it's being poured. My disappointment at the lack of head was quickly forgotten when my nose was hit with the mouthwatering aroma of raspberry ripple ice cream.
The taste isn't quite as strong as the smell but it's lovely. Notes of tarty, sweet raspberries combine with vanilla and chocolate and it's like drinking ice cream.
It has a medium body with low carbonation that gives it a smooth mouthfeel and you get the added bonus of soft raspberry chocolate bubbles bursting on your tongue.
The flavours are perfectly balanced to give a sweet, tarty easy-drinking porter and I thought it was delicious. It's very moreish and I would buy more of these if they brewed it again. If I could, Ale Be Seeing You again!
