| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jun 1, 2008 on tap, DdC. Pours a beautiful rose amber color. Floral aroma. Flavor was of initial mild sweetness, which gave way to a subtle flowery flavor with a touch of bread. Quite a refreshing drink. I enjoyed the hibiscus note, putting this beer a cut above. ogglethorp (887), Ohio, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 31, 2008 Bottle. Pours a rose like color with a light pink head. Aroma is floral, orange, fruity. Flavor is floral, some cherry like note, grain, coriander. Palate is medium to light bodied, medium carbonation, finished lightly tart. Nice stuff. nearbeer (1834), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | May 31, 2008 12 oz. Translucent ruby-copper with a creamy lasting head. Chemical/floral/beauty shop aroma, I guess this is the hibiscus. Flavor is basically the same: shampoo, permanent, and perfume with some slight wheat, coriander, cherry, and citrus. Light-medium body is smooth, a little sticky, but sufficiently dry on the finish. Unique and well-crafted, but way overpriced and not really all that tasty. Suttree (2708), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 31, 2008 Reddish pink, with a pinkish white head. Odd aroma of orange and magnolia, I guess. Flavor is also peculiat, with a winey note and some cranberry or cherry, and just a bit of a medcinal note. I didn’t detect any hibiscus, but then again, I don’t know what hibiscus smells like. Or tastes like. Frankieboy (12), ste-justine, Quebec, Canada
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | May 30, 2008 Il ne faut pas oublier que c’est une blanche, mais pour une blanche, s’en est toute une. La description commerciale rend bien ce qu’elle est en réalité. Ce sera une de mes bières d’été assurément! SQNfan (591), Wheaton, Illinois, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 29, 2008 This was a mix of brilliant red and amber in color with just some light lacing remaining. The nose was filled with flowers, red fruit, herbs and citrus. In the mouth the flavors were funky with strong herbal/dirt flavors. There is plenty of carbonation, keeping this medium-bodied beer refreshing and tart. Shag (1923), Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 27, 2008 A reddish pink color with a pinkish white head. The aroma is some citrus, raspberries, and wheats. The flavor is herbal and somewhat sour. A doughy presence to this one. Overall this was an ok beer. Vac (2389), San Diego, California, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 27, 2008 Bottle at tasting at Chris Fischer’s (from Liars Club) house. Pours wtih a ruby red body topped by a thin head with some lacing. It’s slightly sweet and full of floral notes with a touch of underlying bitterness. Light bodied, crisp and tingly on the tongue.
