MiP (6029), Flensburg, Germany Oct 11, 2008 Bottle, 2.9%. Sweet raspberry aroma, seems a little citric as well. Clear dark red/brown colour. Small head, seems almost white. The flavour is sweet, but not too much, some raspberry. The aftertaste reveals a little beer flavour as well as a hint of bitterness. All that can be expected from a macro fruit beer. JorisPPattyn (4533), Antwerpen, Belgium Aug 18, 2008 Huge, very fine & dense pink head, leaving lace over clear light-terracotta beer. (Wet) cardboard; fruity, vegetable frying oil, sunoil, sulphur - weird aromas. Bit spritzy-fruity flavours, but also vegetable, as broccoli. Sweet mainly in the finish, but nowhere exaggerated. Spritzy MF, oily-filmy feeling over light bodied, overcarbonated beer. Certainly not too sweet - but as from there... yespr (6948), Copenhagen O, Denmark Aug 17, 2008 25 cL bottle. Pours clear golden red with a creamy pink head, slowly collapsing. Sweet candy like raspberry aroma. Sweet flavour with a minimal suplhorish note. Leads from the solid sweetness into a more dry and still fruity but also mild sulphorish finish. Clearly drinkable but nothing special. fonefan (4905), Ulfborg, Denmark Aug 12, 2008 Bottle 25cl @ home. Clear medium to dark orange red color with a average to large, frothy, good lancing, mostly lasting, off-white head. Aroma is light to moderate raspberry. Flavor is moderate sweet with a average duration. Body is light to medium, texture is oily to watery, carbonation is soft to flat. (010608) M0RHI (1039), Luxembourg, Luxembourg Aug 11, 2008 Bottle from the supermarket. Bright pink with a soft pink head, huge and bubbly. Nose is tart raspberries, some sweetness and some lambic sourness, raspberry skin. Mouth is sweet, over-sweet almost, killing any lambic sourness that’s there, with a little tartness, some beery tones finally there, then peetering off to a sweet raspberry mouthfeel. Bit of a shame.
