FatPhil (1965), Espoo, Finland Apr 27, 2008 375ml bottle (BelgianShop)
Rich deep pinky orange. Sharp but fruity raspberry aroma. Rich tart lambic body, crisp and sharp against a soft mellow light grain backdrop. Could easily be sourer and still very drinkable.
TheGrandMaster (1406), Auckland, New Zealand Jul 25, 2008 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. Rockinout (926), Kent, Ohio, USA Jul 22, 2008 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. lampeno_420 (263), Zeeland, Michigan, USA Jul 20, 2008 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. BoBoChamp (255), Gent, Belgium Jul 20, 2008 38cl, brew anno 2006, from Geers Oostakker, complex, yet easy to drink, clear, small head, little sweet, good balance Lowe1983 (730), Fairborn, Ohio, USA Jul 14, 2008 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.
