The color is nice, deep red with a huge raspberry colored head. The aroma is simply fantastic, and I’m teleported back to my childhood and home made raspberry juice, that was sweetish sour and tasted like sun and fresh berries from the bush. And I get the exact same feeling in thee flavour, and I feel like I’m eating ripe, delicious raspberries in the sun with red fingers and cheeks

Sampled from 750ml bottle. Pours a dark red with a pinkish head. Aroma is berry, very raspberry. The flavor is extremely fresh, and tastes like berry juice - no harsh chemical taste. It’s certainly something that could be enjoyed again and again.

Best of their lambic and I agree with the last guy.... better than kriek. Nice reddish purple color with the same color head. Nose is total raspberries in a natural way. Taste is sweet and sour with some wood and almost no funk. Very smooth and drinkable. Nice lambic. I enjoy the sourness.

...even better than the kriek, and that is a great one. More tolerable berry flavors, not as overly sweet as the kriek. Smooth, you just want more, but the price makes you think twice. Goes down too easy, and tastes too good. It is still very sweet compared to other lambics, but very impressive.

Wow. It doesn’t get much better than this as an occasional treat. Super refreshing and delicious.

The beer pours a beautiful reddish purple into an oversized wine glass. It looks like liquid raspberries. A nice layer of mauve colored foam caps this beer, and remains throughout the glass. The aroma is unbelieveable. It smells like a bowl of fresh picked raspberries. Sweet, tangy, fresh. My mouth is watering. The taste doesn’t disappoint. It really blows me away. Surprisingly, it’s not nearly as sweet as one would expect. It reminds me of fresh pressed raspberries, freshly picked and juiced. Someone has finally figured out how to capture fresh fruit in a liquid form. Mouthfeel is fairly carbonated, and tingles the tongue. The tartness comes through and cleans the palate nicely after each sip. Overall, extremely drinkable. This is not a style of beer that I could sit and drink all afternoon, however as an apertif or with dessert it doesn’t get much better.

Bottle- Vintage- Center City Philadelphia. Pours a reddish coloring with very slight head. Smells/ flavors were definitely full of berries. Pretty enjoyable, but goes down really really fast if your a dark beer drinker. It was enjoyable, but only once in a while due to price.

Bottle and tap, with no remarkable differences in my opinion. This one gets a lot of flack for being a "chick beer," but this is such a well-crafted beer that it’s hard to say anything bad about it. While a lambic sometimes needs an acquired taste, the addition of (in this case) raspberries really make this one smooth, fruity and totally enjoyable. Fairly tart, fairly effervescent, without being in any kind of extreme.
