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.

Bottle thanks to blutt59. Pours a hazy orange with a small off-white head that quickly fades. Strong aroma with orange, honeysuckle, hibiscus, tangarine and a bit of pineapple (reminds me of Hawaii). Taste is hibiscus, a bit of banana esteres, tropical fruits, Hawaiian Fruit Punch,. Water like mouthfeel and light carbonation.

I was a little scared when I pour out this pink grapefruit colored beverage with a thick white head. Watching the NFL with a pink beverage is not how I roll, but I gave this a chance. The aroma is herbal, flowery, and fruity. Light herbal fruity taste. A very unique and interesting beer, but it may not be something I go back to often.

Pours an impressive looking pinkish amber with a short-lived one inch head that lingers as a ring for the duration. There is not much lacing but there is a constant stream of bubbles flowing up from the bottom. The aroma is like a cross between tropical fruits and flowers. It’s very sweet but like nothing I’ve smelled before in a beer. There is a bit of wheat in there as well. The taste has an interesting floral zing up front that gives way to the wheat backbone with some fruity sweetness. The finish is a little spicy with maybe coriander, but I have no idea if I’m making that up or not. The mouthfeel is oddly stick despite the major floral nature. This is certainly an original beer, like most from Dieu du Ciel, but this is probably not one I would go back to frequently. Interesting nonetheless.

Minerally hibiscus nose. Cloudy pink to amber, low head. Berrylike and perfumed rose hip tea flavors, the hibiscus is showing. Delicate and nicely balaned. Sparkly medium body. Pleasant.

12oz bottle. Pours a freaky shade of pink - almost like grapefruit juice. It pours very cloudy with a thin, pinkish, light head. The aroma is mesmerizing and pleasant: subtle spice and hibiscus, lots of biscuit and toast. It is a refreshing potpourri, slightly sweet smelling, with notes of honey and candied fruit. The flavor starts sweet&sour with some cracker and biscuit, spice, and funky, leathery, slightly sour brett. The sourness grows slightly but never gets overpowering. The funky leather sticks to your tongue, getting stronger at mid-palate. Also at mid-palate, fruity esters and flavors of herbal tea emerge. There is a light, clean bitterness leading to a dry and interesting finish - fruity, floral, hibiscus, light breadiness. The aftertaste is slightly sour, floral, and spicy. The mouthfeel is puckering and drying - tannic and slightly acidic. The carbonation is brisk. The texture is medium in body and soft. Overall: refreshing, unusual, interesting, and drinkable at first - but the funkiness and sourness get a bit intense on the palate that reduces drinkability (couldn’t drink more than a pint of this...)
