UPDATED: JUN 15, 2007 Bottle -- Surprisingly attractive pale amber with a largish, fairly dense head. Not much retention but some lacing. Aroma of pure lolly water and nought else. Palate is watery. Flavour is unpleasantly medicinal. A sharp yet thin and artificial bitterness right at the end. I can’t find anything pleasant or interesting in this stuff.

A Mes rate: Bottle at some random pub in Marylebone. Acrid synthetic sweet framboise. Cheap rubbish and everyone knows it.

UPDATED: SEP 1, 2007 bottled. One of my very first Belgian beers and its still a good’un. Watery brown colour with thin head. Light aroma of raspberries and flowers with some earthy notes. Taste ot match - flavour is a bit thin. Bubbly and sweet with a dry finish.

Bottle. 5.7% ABV according to the label. Bubbly chestnut to red colour, thick white head. Raspberry, sweet and slightly acetic notes in the nose. Mouth is dull raspberry, slightly sweet and lasting dullness. Dusty. Average. Rich dull palate. OK, but nothing special.

Reddish-brown, with a quickly disappearing head. Very sweet palate dominated by the raspberries, with a dry finish. Ok, but very one-dimensional

copper coloured , light nose, with a stong fruit flavour, tasty but nothing complex .

bottle, served in tulip - aroma was very sweet/ bubblegum, nice dark red color but quite cloudy, flavour is tart and highly carbonated, reminds me of cordial and mineral water to be honest, it’s nice, maybe one for the little lady, i won’t be going back

Dark red colored, little yellow head. Extremely strong raspberry in aroma with some bubblegum. Thin to medium bodied. Flavor is slightly sour with dominating raspberries and bubblegum also in aftertaste. Refreshing and easy to drink. High carbonation, some skunkiness also in aftertaste.
