Stellaaaa (57), Tennessee, USA Oct 24, 2009 Pours a rich, dark red with little head and lots of effervescence. It has an aroma of fresh berries and sugar. The taste of this beer is almost like a sparkling cider combined with bleu cheese from the natural yeast. Has a moderate mouthfeel like that of wine. This is a very good beer. Nena (121), Seattle, Washington, USA Oct 20, 2009 Updated: Nov 10, 2009Poured red with a fluffy pink head. Aroma and flavor were loaded with raspberry. Very sweet and dessertlike, but also quite tart. Has a medium body with a lot of carbonation. I enjoyed it a lot, so I’m rating it fairly well, but the raspberry is so dominant it’s hard for me to sense the malt or remember that this is beer. But then, this is my first experience with with a fruit lambic. monkeychugg55 (214), Joliet, Illinois, USA Oct 16, 2009 Pours a dark maroon with violet hues. Has a foamy, light purple head that retains well and leaves some lacing. Strong, sweet aroma full of raspberries, cherries, some roasted malt. The flavor goes from sweet to sweeter, then very tart, mostly raspberries and cherry. Slight champagne finish. Very fizzy and prickly carbonation. patrickfannon (274), Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 11, 2009 Bottle. 22 oz. Pours straight red, with a think, pink head. Aroma of raspberries, cherries, vanilla, citrus, hops, and hints of spice.Medium, tight body with heavy carbonation. Crisp, tangy finish. Very sugary. Overall a good fruit beer, but way too sweet for my taste. EHSRanders (1121), Randers C, Denmark Oct 2, 2009 Bottle. Red colour with large creamy pink mostly diminishing head. Heavy rasberry aroma. Sweet fruity flavor with sour notes. Oily palate. Davinci (295), Chicago, Illinois, USA Sep 20, 2009 Beautiful ruby red pour with mildly pink head. Smells like a rasberry jolly rancher. Mild tartness, rasberry jam flavor, huge sweetness follows. Mildly tanic. Not really too bad, but way too sweet in the finish. Body is slightly sticky. Might be ok with desert, but is way too sweet.
Fratto (670), Arlington, Texas, USA Sep 18, 2009 Gingerman. This tastes like concentrated raspberry mix. It’s delicious, yet disgusting.
