Notes from a Pro-brewer

Nice clarity, no head. Some sulfitic notes (fireworks/matches) on the nose, slight honey as well. Raspberry subtle in the aroma.Nice carbonation. Very nice tartness (grapefruit coming through?). Nice flavor, but pretty thin on the finish. I'd like this to have a little more body.
