1.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
Bottled, wired cork. Dark amber coloured with vague pinkish head. Sharp raspberry flavour, tart but synthetic. A leafy mould then shows though which swiftly moves downhill. Some vanilla on the finish.

Not much to say about this one really, apart from it’s no Kriek. Not sure why this is so popular.

Murky amber color with white head. Artificial raspberry aroma. Slightly acidic, tart, artificial raspberry flavor. Overall poor quality for a lambic. Tastes as if someone added raspberry flavoring to crappy beer.

Wow - very disapointing. Pours a greyish brown color with a very slightly off-white head. Flavor is like sickly sweet cherry soda. Reminds me of a "Franks Black Cherry Wishniak" soda. Musty, non-earthy, not tart, getting dumped in the drain.

Not a fruit-beer fan at all, this is one in that series.

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.
