3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 KimJohansen (10337) - Copenhagen V, DENMARK - DEC 28, 2008
Cloudy deep red with a medium pink head. Artificial raspberries in the nose. Sourish flavour with raspberries, mild barnyard and citric notes. Finished sourish.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 kkearn (1162) - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA - NOV 20, 2008
12oz bottle. Pours a deep ruby with hints of brown, topped with a fairly small off-white head. Tangy raspberry syrup aroma; with raspberry seed, cork and some mustiness. Aroma is a bit on the syrupy sweet side. Flavor is sweet-tart, reminiscent of raspberry candy, with not much else going on. Although it’s not quite cloying, it’s still too sweet for me. It is otherwise easy to drink, with medium body and little carbonation. Too sweet for me.
2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20 KnutAlbert (4386) - Oslo, NORWAY - SEP 23, 2008
Pegasus Cafe, Copenhagen.
Storng raspberry aroma. Sour, but not sour enough to cope with the syrup mixed in. Not my cup of tea!
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 thewolf (8245) - Kolding, DENMARK - SEP 21, 2008
Bottle, bought @ Haus der 131 Biere.
Pours muddy deep red, small fizzy white-pink head. Settles as a thin film. Heavy fruity aroma, lots of raspberries. Some tartness. High carbonation, fair mouthfeel. Flavour is medium tart, quite good fruitiness and a subdued sweetness at the end. A very fruity lambic - and actually not that bad - compared to the other Chapeau offerings.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20 FatPhil (5970) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - SEP 19, 2008
330ml bottle (EBF2008)
Big raspberry aroma - real fruit, not artificial. Sharp puckering raspberry taste. Sweet finish. Very refreshing. One of the better framboises I’ve had (nothing can touch 3F of course), and definitely one of de Troch’s better brews. I’ve been looking for this sourness from de Troch for a long time - finally I’m rewarded! (And my next one was the Lemon...)
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 larsga (4435) - Oslo, NORWAY - SEP 18, 2008
Small pink head. Deep red body with small particles. Strong raspberry juice aroma. Not a lot else. Sweetish yoghurty intense raspberry taste. Taste settles into the mouth. Very good! (0.25l bottle at Pegasus, Copenhagen.)
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 IlanMan (1015) - Appleton, Wisconsin, USA - JUL 26, 2008
Wow. much lower in alcohol than I expected. I thought this was a pretty good lambic. Perhaps I need to take a beer tasting tutorial. Flavor was up front sweet raspberry finishing strong with more raspberry. Very sweet and easy to drink. Heck, might buy again.
