red amber coloured body with a white head a fruity aroma a sweet fruity taste with a sweet fruity finish

Amberish coloured beer with medium white head. Fruity aroma. Sweet fruity palate. Sweet mixed fruity finish, niecely balanced.

Bottle, Belgian Belly. Poured a dark red with a dissipating light reddy head. Aroma is lightly sour with bags of berry fruit. Flavour is initially sweet with a lorra berry then becomes lightly sour. A bit too sickly sweet, so no cigar.

33 cL bottle. Pours murky orange with a slowly diminishing, creamy and light pink head. Light woody, mouldy and mild berry fruity aroma. Flavour has a strange mouldy note lending towards dry woody. Sweet and light acidic touch in a dry malt mix with a mix of berries. Somewhat unrefined and messy flavour - yet it slowly becomes more enjoyable for each sip. Ends with a dry woody and berry flavour.

A true combination of fruit and some undefinable beerquality. At the same time there is to much "sweets" in the flavour

Bottle 0,33ltr: Pretty decent fruit beer with some good hints of different fruits from this great brewery.

[1074-20080201] 330mL (c/o mds, w/ blankboy, GregClow, jerc). Aroma of woodsy fruit punch yeast. Hazy, red body with a medium-lasting bubbly off-white head. Old woodsy berries continues in flavour along with a sweet alcoholic oak finish and a resiny aftertaste. Medium body. Something leafy funky here.
Overheard: "It’s like those red berries you’re not supposed to eat."

Bottle (330ml) shared with jerc, mabel, GregClow & mds -- courtesy of mds. Pours a deep pinkish-red with a large fluffy white head. Fruity aroma, reminds me of jam. Sweet flavour of fruit, yeast, some spices and alcohol. Average bodied. Not bad, I didn’t mind it.
