Commercial Description:
The Rosée d’Hibiscus is a soft spoken wheat beer. The rose colour comes from the hibiscus flowers added during the brewing process. The aromas and flavour of this tropical flower are very prominent in the beer, giving it a slight acidity and a very agreeable fragrance. It is the perfect thirst quencher on a hot summer day.

Pink grapefruit colored body that stirs a small, fleeting, white head. Clean, floral fruity aroma. Lightly sweet, floral herbal flavor with some acidity. Light & sprtizy.

Bottle into Sam Adams lager glass. Pours a cloudy copper, with a big, fluffy beige head that has just a hint of pink in it. Nose shows through with a big floral presence along side some sharp lemon zest and some crisp wheat. Flavor is very interesting. The floral note comes through clearly, but doesn’t dominate. Body is lightly crisp and wheaty, yeast comes through clear and smooth, and some lemon zest pokes through at the finish, but the hibiscus makes the whole thing different than any I’ve had before. Floral notes comes through stronger as the beer warms, hints at kiwi fruit - odd. The more you drink it though, the more the floral taste starts getting weirder and weirder. By the end of the glass I was ready to be done. Mouthfeel is fluffy and smooth, creamy. Light bodied. Drinkability takes a bit of a hit from the oddity of the floral taste.

12 oz bottle which pours a very hazy vermilion with low carbonation and a small head. interesting floral and fruity aroma, soft spices and yeast and wheat dominate the aroma. hibiscus? never would have guessed, since at no point in my life have i tasted hibiscus, but it’s surprisingly perfumy and pleasant. sweet and enjoyable, and quite worth trying.

Bottle from Greens in Atlanta. Pours a very bubbly reddish/orange color with a very small but nice white head. Aroma is tart, herbal, spicy, yeast and some berries are mixed in the nose. Flavor is yeasty and tart wtih big bite of carbonation. I get some lemony notes and there is some sweetness to be found. This is a very interesting beer and certainly worth seeking out.

Beautiful light rose pour leaves little head. Strong floral nose with honey and citrus. Tastes of brewed herbal tea with a subtly spicy finish. It’s a little too fizzy in the mouth, but I was blown away that this taste combination would work. Didn’t see this one coming.

Nice thick mahogany-rose pour. Aroma is obviously unique, with an extremely floral bouquet and notes of white wine, slight sourness, and a bit of nutty-yeastiness. Flavor is subtle and delicate, flowery and vinous, with a good amount of acidity. Nice dry citrus-and-yeast finish with some subtle hazelnut and spice. Extremely unique and well worth a try. Palate is creamy and slightly dry. Very nice.
