Dieu du Ciel Rosée dHibiscus

Brewed by Dieu du Ciel
Style: Spice/Herb/Vegetable
Montreal, Canada

12 oz. Pinkish, orange with a thin white head. Incredibly delicate aroma - taffy, bubblegum, muted grapefruit, light spice. Flavor is much less sweet smelling, but still delicate. The wheat comes through. Very soft on the palate, with a finish that’s just slightly tart and bitter.

Bottle. Weird fruity/floral malt aroma. Cloudy deep orange body, small head. Flavor is tart and fruity, with some sweetness around the edges. Definitely different, but I’m not sure how enjoyable.

Very light and delicate beer. Poured with a great soapy head. I immediately noticed the nose--perfume, flowers, hops, sweet zest. The beer was also very light. It tasted of PlayDoh, flowers, perfume, and fancy soaps. Very, very bubbly. Like a soda. Nice. Very, very nice.

Pours like a pink flower. Very odd first look. Nothing particular about the aroma or flavor. Very light. Little bit of fruit. Maybe some lemon. Like a wine spritzer?

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.
