3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
A nice and successful combination of fresh fruits with a Lambic. A pleasure to drink, although I wouldn’t have it every day, it’s too special.

Bottle from Phil_L and beermerchants.com. Deep red, purple, hint of pink, like an angry penis. Thin fading head of similar colour. Nice flavour with a decent amount of souness and tart. Not bad at all, cheers!
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pour is brownish, red with a tint of peach...but very murky, head is thin off white with tint of red. Aroma is tart raspberry with hints of yeast and malts. Flavor is much of the same, nicely balanced. Palate is tart, pretty nice. Good brew

1995 Vintage bottle. Not quite as funky as I would have liked. A little sweeter with a nice raspberry flavor. Needed more sour but still very pleasant.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Reddish in color with a foamy pink head. Aroma is raspberry and musty yeast. Flavor is sweet and tart, fruity with a dry finish. Nice.

Bottle at EBF 08. Thanks Jacob. Haze, orange red. Perfect aroma of raspberry. Just like raspberry jam, without being too sweet and then in mouth..... dies in the mouth, bit too sweet. It’s ok, just not fresh enough for me and a tad too sweet.

Bottle. Rusty russet colour. Lasting thin white head. Raspberry and cream aroma with some sourness evident. Full syrupy raspberry sweetish syrup and cream in mouth. Then odd sourness on finish. It just does not fit in with the rest of it. It is certainly the lowest rating that I have given for a Boon beer. Raspberry syrup is quite pleasing but it could be better.
3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle @ European beerfestival 2008. Pours a hazy red-brown with a tiny head. Sweet with some bitterness. Strong aromas of not entirely ripe raspberries... nice. Tiny funghi hint. Nice dry finish with a bit more raspberry aromas.

Brux 07. Wohoo, rating #800. What a beer to celebarte it with! Pours a cloudy dark red with a hint of brown. Smells of raspberries. Bery perfumeis toward the end. Sweet with strong, slightly artificial, aromas of beriies. Medium to full flavored. Small hint of sulphur.
