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.

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.

Bottle from Champanes, has a hazy red pour that resembles a blush wine with more carbonation, there are white bubbles to make a small head that lowers to a ring and patchy covering, a gentle effervescence, bottom of the bottle was completely covered with sediment (this stuff is unfiltered), aroma of light fruit and berries, I got fragrances of sugar and flower sweetness, some herb aroma that reminds me of teas I have had, orange and lemon citrus aromas, nose wise this comes across as fruit beer more than a spiced beer in aroma, berry and herb flavors along with lemon citrus, there is a hint of grapefruit in this brew, finish ends dry on the palate with a little lemon skin flavor, very nice, nice mouth feel with some creaminess, a very nice drink, I thought the hibiscus went well with the Wit beer recipe, yes, this would be a nice thirst quencher on a hot day as the brewer advertises, I just wished this beer was a little more affordable.

Acheté à la trappe à fromage et dégusté dans un verre de saint arnould. Apparence rose orangé trouble avec une bonne mousse persistante un bonne quantité de levure. Arômes floral avec une brise de miel. Du corp, de l’alcool, de l’originalité avec des saveurs de miel, de lime et de pomette. Le tout est bien gazéfier et a une longue finale. Une grande bière avec un profile de vieillissement profitable.

One of the girliest beers I’ve ever had, but I have to admit it’s pretty good. Reddish color with an off-white head. Heavy carbonation, flowery fruity taste, reminiscent of a wine cooler (something I would never go within 10 feet of), but better. Not much bitterness - this may have a negative IBU rating. Embarrassingly enjoyable.

11.2oz bottle from Sam’s, Durham. For some reason I expected pale straw yellow, and what I got was a somewhat cloudy reddish pour, with amber at its center and pink at the edges. And I was surprised at how soft and floral the nose was, more than the trace elements I had in mind. It’s actually a fairly appealing aroma, blending well with the style’s yeasty qualities. This held true for the flavors, where the delicate fruits and flower play gently with the yeasts to give the beer a mellow tartness that seems entirely consistent with the hibiscus. Quite nice.
