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.

THOUGHTS: At first I thought this might have been a little skunked, but I think it was just all the crazy aroma going on. But it was hard to tell. I smelled slightly skunked,but it didn’t taste skunked. I really can’t say. The yeast definitely looked old and dark at the bottom of the bottle. I might wind up trying this again to see it was skunked. If so it was still pretty good. TECHNICAL: Bottle. Poured a hazy, medium brownish, orangey pink. It was almost a brownish mellon color and looked a little like dirty, rusty water too. It had a small to average, slightly pinkish head that mostly diminished. The aroma was tropical fruit, spices, flowers and perfume. It was like sniffing a flower arrangement that was being held by a woman with lovely perfume on while she baked spice cake or fruit cake. The initial flavor was sweet, rather acidic and slightly sour; while the finish was sweet, acidic and rather sour with an average duration. There was tropical fruit, flowery yeast, wheat, sour fruit and spices. The light to medium body was a little syrupy then very dry with fizzy carbonation and a moderate astringent finish.

Pours a dark cloudy amber color with a huge, slightly pin foam head that quickly settles into a thin lacing. Sour acidic aroma with flower petals, citrus grapefruit and grapes. Soft carbonation with a sour and slightly puckering acidic taste. Nice subtle floral flavor with citrus peel, grape fruit and light crisp grapes.

Spicy floral aroma. Pours cloudy red with a thin head. Definitely an unusual beer. Pungent floral and spices. Probably don’t need to drink 6 in a row but a refreshing change of pace.

reddish orange with some pink, almost non-existent head. beautiful nose of almost floral bubblegum. some mild bitterness before a brief hint of acidity followed by very floral hops that complement the finish of a very floral petal-like taste. a little bit of grainy malt to balance the finish. a very unique beer, that really is artistic in it’s approach. awesome

Sampled at vt brewfest 09. Pours a hazy orange/pink color with a white/ pink head. Aroma was flowery with fruit and citrus. Flavor was sweet and tart with wheat, lemon/raspberry, floral and has a tart finish.

Dégustée en fût au brouepub. De couleur rosée-ambrée et voilée. Nez fruité (agrumes, notes d’abricots et de pêche, traces de petits fruits), floral et légèrement herbeux (herbes fraîches), moyen de blé avec des notes de malt pâle. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement élevé et une texture légèrement crémeuse et aux petites notes huileuses. Goût fruité (agrumes, abricots, traces de framboises) lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût de blé asséchant et légèrement sûr ainsi qu’un léger goût de malt pâle et des petites notes de pain puis en finale l’on retrouve une légère amertume asséchante, florale et légèrement herbeuse (herbes fraîches et léger houblon) mais également des notes épicées (poivre très doux). Post-goût moyen et sec, légèrement amer de houblon floral et herbeux avec un léger goût de blé et fruité (zest d’agrumes, noyau de pêche). (automne 2006)
