Golden amber color. Big white head. Some lacing. Huge floral and fruit aroma. Taste is big on berries. A little sweet. Not bad. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Now here’s a plan. Buy crap beers for the missus, take a sip or 2 and then tick them off. I *will* tick every beer at Ruprai before the year is out! Wasn’t so bad actually. Floral to the max and oh so sweet. Bit like your truly.

Bouteille 330ml. De couleur dorée foncée et voilée. Nez de levures fruitées sucrées aux petites notes sûres (pêche, léger de fruits tropicaux et de pomme sucré, notes d’agrumes sucrées). Mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen et une texture légèrement sirupeuse fruitée et très légèrement aqueuse. Goût de levures fruitées assez sucré aux petites notes sûres et acides (pêche, léger de fruits tropicaux et d’abricots, faibles notes de pommes sucrées) dès l’entrée en bouche et qui s’intensifie tout au long de la gorgée (rappelant des fruits en conserves) et auquel se ranjoute quelques traces de grains de céréles. Post-goût moyen-court, composé d’un goût fruité sucré aux faibles traces acides.

Bottle. Orangish colour with minimal and quickly diminishing off-white head. Aroma is sweet, malty and honeyness. Flavour has notes of fruits, where peach is present, hints of honey. Carbonation and body are medium.

This beer was 2 years old from bierkompass. It was amazing. Like a fruit rollup liquified. It tasted like peach, mango and strawberry wet. Aroma is the same. Color is gold-orange and effervescent. Palate is clean and really works. Overall is just beautiful

Bottled. Cloudy yellow with a dense white head. Aroma is mild citric peachy, guava and hints of passion fruit. Light sweet berry fruity flavor. citric notes. Mouthfeel is quite sweet soar..

Bottle @ home, shared with my girlfriend. Slightly hazy yellow / light orange color, small white lacing. The aroma is very sweet and I also smell passion fruits very clearly, but both not offensive. Taste sweet, but soft, again not offensive at all. Soft mouthfeel, soft carbonation, low to medium body. Quite acceptable.

Originally rated August 2006. Newly recieved at the LCBO, best before date is May 2008. Pours a hazy golden colour with a small white head. This one does not last long, but leaves a small layer over the brew. Lightly carbonated, this beer has a beautiful nose with all of the fruits mentioned in the ingredients: peach, apricot, mango and passion fruit. The taste is sweet with mostly the peach and passion fruit showing, but some light sourness in the finish mixes everything well. Not much lingers in the aftertaste. Would be even better if the fruit was from purée, and not juices as listed. Not syrupy, so it makes this one a pretty good summer brew.

330mL bottle poured deep golden with big white head diminishing quickly to fine lace. Aromas of berry and yeast. Tastes fruity with some yeast and a little hop in the finish. An interesting fruit beer to say the least.
