For what it is, it’s a very nice fruit beer. It’s much smoother on tap than in a bottle. However, as far as beers go, it doesn’t taste much like one at all. I could just as easily been drinking juice! Very overwhelmingly fruity. But seeing as it was my last beer of a beer-drinking evening, it went down a treat. ontario102 (794), Boise, Idaho, USA

Sour raspberry flavor with hint of dryness and mustiness. Nice palate. gilvanblight (390), Windsor, Ontario, Canada
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Jun 4, 2005 Bottle. Very sweet smell with a taste to match. More like a candy then a beer. Taste sticks to the tongue strongly. Somewhat appealing plumb colour with a suprising head. Personally I prefer my beer to not taste like a ’treat’ clvand0 (350), Lexington, Kentucky, USA
| 4.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | May 24, 2005 This beer poured a dark red color with very little head at all and left no lacing on the glass. The aroma was very nice: raspberry and sweetness with a bit of musty. I was worried about the flavor because I really don’t like the sour flavor of Lambics and I tend to stay away from them because of that. But this was great. It was lacking that extreme tart/sour characteristic that I don’t like in the Cantillon styles. Very sweet and smooth. Extremely well done.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | May 21, 2005 Very fine fruit beer. Aroma of raspberry, but with a bit of Cherry and vanilla in there, too. Quite sweet but with an acceptable hint of balsamic vinegar. Not had this for a while and its better than expected.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 20, 2005 (Bottle 37,5 cl) Vintage 1991 at 5,1% ABV. Dark reddish beer with a nice, full slightly pinkisk head. The raspberries are very evident although pretty much balanced by the sour base beer. You don’t completely avoid been left with a sugarish feel in the mouth. Then pour a "Goudenband" and be jolly. 130194
