Grape purple with a pink foamy head. Strong tart fruit aromas, like a grape lollipop, with plenty of earthiness and wood. Sweet and sour grape dominates the flavors, with a clear sense of yeast present and a slight mintiness. Champagne-like body and carbonation, a pleasant candy-like aftertaste. Like the Kriek, probably not something to have very often, but nice to have on occasion.

Another lambic fruit beer. Oye. This one is a bit of raspberry and other plumb like fruit mixed in. Ok. Sweetness overwhelms.

Unless you like sparkling old moldy wine....dont drink this. Stick to the framboise if you want a fruit beer.

Bottle. Pours dark hazy purple with a medium long lasting dense reddish head. Aroma is blackcurrants, with weak notes of grape. Flavour is like picking fresh, not completely ripe blackcurrants and eat a handful. It has a long slightly sour blackcurrant aftertaste.

Purple, thin purple head. Nose is concord grape, butter, some sort of upsetting sweetness, jam. Flavor is grapes, slight tartness, meaty malt, really fruity. grape soda finish. Meh. If I made a soda this sweet I’d be upset.

Dark pink coloured beer with small pinkish coloured beer. Sour aroma. Full palate, bit sour. Finish is sweet and sour balanced though.

Deep, dark rich purple color. Flavor is like sweet grape juice, with a little sourness on the finish. Granted, I wouldn’t want this often, but it’s really not bad, albeit a little too sweet. Interesting, nonetheless.
