Pours red/amber with fast fading head. Reaks of raspberries and syrup. Mouthfeel is sweet and dry, more like a cider. I actually tried this next to a non-alcoholic cider and it was pretty close with the expception of less sweetness and the dryness. The wife really enjoyed this one and I was surprised by how much I liked it. A nice balance of sweet and dry.

Bottle (in NZ), poured a cloudy pinkish brown, with a foamy pink head. A tangy sour aroma of raspberries. Sour on the palate, but also acidic - hinting that it hasn’t enjoyed the long journey to NZ. Raspberry and some banana flavours. The finish is mroe full, creamy and salty. I’ve tasted it in better nick than this - shame.

Very fresh and up front nose of tart sour raspberries. A warm reddish pink color. Has a dry, sour, and musty taste. Will drink next bottle with some dark chocolate.

Pink/red pour with hardly any head. Good tart raspberries all the way through with some funk as well. Nice sour bite that sweetens out into a good overall fruit right away. A little on the water side in the palate but still, very delicious. Damn i love lambic’s.

Pours a ruby color with a pink head. Aroma is of raspberry, sourness, oak, and some wild aromas. Tart flavor with some oak, wool, raspberry, and some yeast. Not too bad but not my favorite framboise.
