This has been my first ever beer review and it has been an ultimate experience. Having tasted a few beers here and there over the past years I recruited @egjadzis, beer cynosure to guide me through the tasting. This beer tasting is for New Planet Raspberry Ale. Each feature of the beer was scored on a best out of 10 scale, with a 50 being the highest score a beer can earn...

This beer tickled the auditory senses with a standard hiss upon opening. The beer poured a translucent golden / light copper color with a fair white head that quickly dissipated. A thin stream of bubbles emanated from the bottom of the glass.
Aroma of raspberries, toast, and fruitiness. The taste was much of the same, with a light bitter "hoppiness" in the finish. No pungency.
This entire experience has been pleasurable. I have to say that this is my favorite gluten-free beers to date from inception through last sip.
