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 pours a very hazed and foggy pink peach brown with a short lasting pinkish white head. The aroma is yeast, hibiscus tea, coriander, and some other cardamom like notes. The flavor is quite like hibiscus tea with a lingering fruity tartness. The coriander and cardamom shine through as it warms. Funny, it reminds me of De Dolle Oerbier light. The palate is quenching and refreshing. Overall, this is a nice surprise.

Pink color and aroma of lager yeast. Light malt. Some flower and fruit flavor, and it is real fruit. Not very sweet, but light and delicate with the flower flavor.

Pours a cloudy pink with a lovely pink head with poor retention. Aroma of melon, rose, sweet herb (coriander-like). Light sweet & fruity taste with a hint of rose-water followed up by coriander and arrowroot. Lingering grainy sweetness. Thin undercarbonated body. A very light but interesting beer, well balanced and executed.

Bottle received as a beer-of-the-month selection. Pours a lovely red with tinits of amber and rose pink. A very unique color actually, and I like it. Moderate off-white head with a blush of pink to it as well that faded away after the first two sips. Pleasant floral aroma with some light sour notes picked up in the nose as well. The flavor slides back a bit with malt up front followed by some hibiscus (if you’ve ever had hibiscus tea, you’ll recongnize the flavor). The flavors seem to evaporate quickly, although there is a residual tartness that lingers briefly. A different beer that is worth trying.

Pours a pinkish apricot color with a shortlived froth that disintegrates to nothing. Aroma is floral with some malty perfume. Full nectar with good carbonation. This brew is malt driven with moderate spice and a floral arrangement. I taste some citrus of the orange sort. The finish has an acidic tone to it while leaving a lingering orange yogurt taste in the mouth. Tasty indeed.

Pours an odd muddy brownish red with a large pink head of fine bubbles. Aroma is surprisingly yeasty, fruity, a whole lot of wheat, and an underlying, unfamiliar sort of tropical aroma hiding, which is presumably the hibiscus. Flavor is... woah. Quite different. A slightly off tropical flavor reminiscent of suntan lotion hits the palate on the first sip. A surprising tartness. A slightly earthy flavor. A quite refreshing beer, with a multitude of flavors, but the suntan lotion thing is putting me off just a little. Otherwise quite a nice beer.

Pours a deep amber-orange color with a small but creamy pink head. Aroma of spice, grain, fruit and a flowery presence that is different from anything I’ve encountered in a beer. Flavor follows along those lines, wheat and yeast are the foundation for a spicy, fruity, floral tasting brew. Very unusual, refreshing and good!
