Amber coloured beer with some light carbonation and a rather small white head. Clear raspberry aroma,, very distinctive. Medium palate. Finish is sweet fruity with some distinctive strawberry touches. Medium tasty fruit beer.

(BBE 4/07) Red colored, vanishing white head. Raspbery dominates in slightly sour, still sweet aroma. Thin to medium bodied. Flavor is also sweet and sugary with dominating raspberries, luckily bottle is so small. Aftertaste dries somehow.

Bottle: Poured a ruby red color with a light reddish white head. A strong full raspberry aroma was present from pour. Light berry taste with a hint of malt and seed, not as strong as some I have had. Finish was dry and tangy.

This beer is brewed by Brasserie du Bocq, but in contract brewing for M&P Brasseries, Gedinne. When I poured the beer into the glass, it showed a nice re-pinkish head. The flavours of raspberry were immediately observed. This is a fres beer, with surprisingly some sourness in it, which is a nice surprise, as I expected another flat sweet beer, but I was not impressed by its taste.
