Presentation: It was poured from a tap into a pint glass. Appearance: The body has a deep dark, nearly opaque presentation with slightly reddish/purple hue. There is some visible carbonation near the edges of the glass. At the top there is sits a tall thick pinkish/tan head. It is long lasting and make for some great lace rings on the glass. Smell: Its aroma has hints of raspberry, malt and some good funky yeast. Taste/Mouth feel: The flavor has a nice natural fruity raspberry taste mixing with a lightly sweet malt that gives a nice balance to the slight tartness of the raspberry. The touch of yeast adds some light earthy/funk and complexity. Its medium bodied with soft lightly fizzy texture and carbonation. Notes: I found this to have good balance of flavor and overall character.

Bouteille de 375 ml. Nos yeux observent une bière de couleur brune avec des reflets bourgogne et un col de mousse moyen. Au nez on respire des arômes de framboises. En bouche framboises sucrées et acides

Bubbly dark red liquid with no head. Delicious berry scent with just a hint of sourness. Sour flavour grows through the glass. Ripe dark fruit and woody flavour. Stewed strawberries and rhubarb.

Bottle from John’s Marketplace in Portland, OR. Corked and caged. The metal on the cork has 01 2017! Whiskey Tango Foxtrot! Reddish tinged dark amber color with a frothy beige head. The aroma is very fresh raspberry. Medium body with mild, but firm, carbonation. The flavor is raspberry and raspberry seed (crushed in the teeth). The finish is quite mild and raspberry. This is a sour ale? Ok, but I find it quite mild. It’s like fresh raspberries in the mouth. Up Moortgat!

Bottle. Slightly hazy red brown with slight off white head. Aroma is not strong but is fruity. Medium body with strong carbonation. Intense fruit flavour with other interesting notes, perhaps slightly spicy. A great framboise.
