St Pieters Leeuw-Vlezenbeek, Belgium

my first lambic of any sort.so I took out my trusty bottle opeaner and to my surprise ther was acork in my bottle so i had to wait a little longer while i loked for a f---ing cork screw ok poured a cloudy shade of ruby with pink head aromas were of right raspberries if i would have known the difference between framboise and kriek a would have went with the latter seeing how i have nothing to compare this to i will have to rerate it after i’ve had a few more in this style the closest i have ever come to this taste is new glarus friut beers

Small pink head. Way to sweet and syrupy. But behind the sweetness there is a real good raspberrie flavour noticeable. This could be a real good beer, if only it wasn’t this sweet. (Bottle 25cl)

May have recently changed labels. Beautiful ruby red body with medium sized pinkish head. Excellent smell of sweet raspberries, as you’d expect. The taste doesnt let down either, tart rasperry, the sweet and the sour balanced perfectly. Lively, a dry finish on the palate. It is what it is - and its great.

375 ml bottle. hazy red colour. strange, crown and a cork.....medium fading pink head. taste very sweet.

Pours a dark burgandy color with a thick pink head. Very strong raspberry aroma with a hint of mouthwatering vinegar. Sweet raspberry flavor with a little sour kick. Rather bubbly and smooth. Easy to drink.

375ml bottle BB 21 Jan 2010. Was a bit suprised when I cracked open the crown seal to hear no pop...it didn’t occur to me that the beer ALSO had a cork, and I had to track down my ever allusive cork screw... Presented with a lovely deep, murky purple body with a rocky, creamy, dense pink head that creates a landscape of lace on the glass on the way down. Aroma is raspberry jam, straightup. Some vinous stewed fruits and natural yoghurt-like sharpness come through with a good swirl. Carbonation is lively without being overdone, body is thick near-syrup, suprisingly good length for a beer of the strength. Restrained sharpness, balanced with sweetness. I’m reminded bit of a raspberry yoghurt I have at work; lactic sharpness, creamy sweetness, tart raspberry. Finish is quite vinous with a bit of tannin and lingering stew fruit, slightly sharp but not dry. Excellent raspberry flavour, balance is more on the sweet side, but its certainly not cloying, and has an overall lightness that makes it quite enjoyable and drinkable.

Pours dark red with a pink head. Aroma is like a kick of raspberries, and that’s about it, but it’s not deterring. The flavor is quite sweet though, and is all right for the first few sips, but after a while, the sweetness is more than I can handle. There are some very minor hints of sour, but not enough to make the beer work exceedingly well. Finishes dry. All right enough.

Pink frothy head on a cherry red pour,with good carbonation.Aroma raspberries,hops,light malt notes.Flavour sweet but not overdone,even flavour of vinuos,light wheat,malt is tops smooth but has a high note in flavour with the wheat.Hops are good on the taste buds,really good thirst quencher,slight acidic notes,the finish sweet and dry,pretty good stuff.
