Mar 28, 2008 Cloudy mahogany in snifter; smells of sweet fruit and alcohol; tastes sweet, tart, heavy fruit essence with slightly medicinal aftertaste; good for after dinner w/ fruit/cheese; would not stand alone well in my opinion

Mar 25, 2008 750 ml. Bottled on 02/12/07. Pours out a beautiful purple and crimson color with a thin white head. Aroma of blueberries and fruity Belgian yeast. Flavor is ever so slightly tart, but has mellowed considerably after a year in the bottle. Heavy carbonation is noticeable as are hints of blackberry. Would characterize this beer as being predominately sweet and a little thin. Finish is is spicy and long lasting. It has improved with age, as most of the stronger Dogfish beers do, but still not as complex as I’d hoped.

Mar 24, 2008 Pours a ruby/copper color. A little hazy with a nice, creamy white head. Aroma is of berries and yeast. Deliciously fruity taste, blueberries and blackberries for sure along with a floral yeasty taste. Very creamy with sweet malts and spices. Crisp finish.

Mar 24, 2008 Pours reddish brown with a white head. Yeast and fruit on the nose. Lots of dark fruit flavors with some Belgian character as well. It’s a little too sweet, but still an enjoyable brew.

Mar 20, 2008 (bottle - 750 ml) Reddish copper color with a very thin white head. Lots of berries in the aroma, mostly blackberries, and some sugar. Not a whole lot else. Flavor is very fruity with a lot of berries. The initial flavor is the sweet malt and bitterness of a Belgian ale followed by a nice sweetness of blueberries and blackberries with a very tart and bitter finish. A little sour at the end.

Mar 20, 2008 Bottle. [thank you, Skou]
Pours a pretty, clear amber with a medium creamy white head. Super lacing. Aroma is sweet and fruity. Lots of raspberries and bluberries.Good mouthfeel with medium carbonation. Flavour is a bit of a let-down and slightly thin. Light fruity tartiness with the raspberries dominating. Light vinious and warms up at the end.

Mar 13, 2008 Bottle at bdigi66. Small off-white head that mostly diminished, spotty amounts of lacing, transparent, very little carbonation, and an orange hue. Nose was berries, some spice, sweet some malt, and some alcohol. Pretty much ditto for the flavor. Fairly smooth mouthfeel and medium in body. Just an okay beer for me as it was a tad too much berry tasting for my liking so once is enough for me of this beer.

Mar 10, 2008 July 2007 - Pour was a reddish color with thin head and lacing. Faint aroma of fruity blueberries. Nicely done fruity beer, just enough fruit to be sweet and refreshing, not too much. Some malty sweetness and a little "belgian-y thing" going on. I liked it.
