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.

Thanks to rogueone for this! Red pour with a fizzy red head. Looks like a fruit soda. This beer just wasn’t for me... Fresh flower bouquet on the nose. Flower up front. Finish’s with a bloody mary or type flavor very interesting. marinara

On tap at Dieu Du Ciel, and Mondial. Glow Stick red/amber color with moderate head. Oddest color I ever seen for a beer. Notes of basil/tomato on top of a floral/fruit backbone. Acidic towards the end. Tough to get my head around.

From a 12-ounce bottle purchased at John’s Marketplace in Portland, OR--Poured a crystal ruby body (slightly burgundy in color) with a small wispy white head. Sour, flowery, piquant nose. Crisp, sweet, floral flavor. Well carbonated and finished nicely with a rosy follow through. Quite interesting!

Appearance: Pours a clear, amber body with a bubbly, diminishing, white head. Smell: An indistinct wheat malt note. Definitely flowery, lychee, roses, and and melted scented candles. Taste: Pale, wheat maltiness that’s somewhat sweet. A bit more pronounced fruit and floral character than the nose, even a bit tropical. Lychee, honeydew melon, and orange peel. Spoonful of a frozen Bahama Mama. Touch of acidity midway. Very light bitterness. Finishes sweet and floral. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Drinkability: Not bad at all. Dare I say it was surprisingly pleasant.

Bottle…Cloudy, light orange ale with a small, creamy, white head. Decent retention. Funky, spicy aroma provides clove phenols and hibiscus essence. Vero Beach carries the Hibiscus City moniker and those flowers are blossoming year-round in everyone’s landscaping. There’s no mistaking their spicy, floral aroma and this brew is loaded with it. Medium-bodied with lively carbonation. Restrained acidity with equal sweetness. Herbs and flowers. Decent bitterness affords great balance. Lengthy, tingly finish. Bottled provided by glouglouburp!

The Hibiscus really give a different look to a normal wheat beer. Pinkish amber with a nice fluffy white head. Aroma is laced with a lingering floral aroma. The beer was smooth and delicate. Nothing stood out, maybe a little taste of brett? Probably would be good beer to bathe in if you wanted to smell like a flowery beer.

Pours an ever-so-slightly-pink shade of amber. Super floral aroma with hints of citrus. Tastes like you are drinking flowers. I don’t know if that is a good thing or a bad thing. I’m kinda on the fence about it, myself.

It pours light, slightly hazed body with a pale red tint and a short, pale pink head. The aroma is floral (hibiscus, I presume) with underlying buttery malt and a light wheaty tartness. It tastes perfumey, but not in a bad way, with dry spices and a citric fruitiness and tartness. More interesting than enjoyable.
