I am new to brewing and I am trying to make a rasberry beer. I added the berries durring the second fermentation and it smelled great but when i went to bottle it it tasted extremly sour. Will two weeks in the bottle fix this or should i just scrap it?

It will mellow out a little bit, but raspberries are fairly tart in a beer... It probably won't have as sweet a flavor as you might be hoping for. I add unfermentable sweetener with the priming sugar at bottling to cut the sourness and sweeten a bit.
