leelavu (9), USA does not count Jul 12, 2007 Back in the day I used to love this beer. But over the months I think as my tastes have changed from the sweet to the savory, It’s been about 5 years since I’ve have this and it was just incredibly sweet. Too much for my tastes now. JAF737300 (791), Tampa, Florida, USA Jul 11, 2007 Poured very red with no head. Deep raspberry aromas and the moutfeel wan an explosion of raspberries. The finish was long and sweet/tart. Soonah (900), Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA Jul 10, 2007 Pour was a decent red color with some pink and some purples swirling around. Head was decent and pink. Above average lacing. The aroma was raspberry and yeast. The flavor was a super sweet, yet super tart raspberry flavor with some metallic undertones. Champagne-like effervesence adds significantly to the "chick beer" angle. The finish is somewhat dry. Interesting at first, becomes tedious quickly. andrewboss (137), New York, USA Jul 9, 2007 Updated: Aug 11, 2007Bottle... thanks to my brother for this most amazing treat. I never had a lambic before this (the closest was cherry wheat Sam Adams), so this was a totally different drinking experience. Pours a purple head with a purple appearance. It has the most wonderful aroma -- unlike anything I’ve ever smelled in a beer. One of the best beer drinking experiences that I’ve had. What I love about it is that after the initial raspberry sweetness hits you, it finishes off with a bitterness that I love in a good beer. JLHop (12), USA Jul 7, 2007 I usually don’t like lambics, but this one is just great. Small head, read color. Great raspberry flavor, nice to drink in the summer. toncatcher (228), Santee - SAN DIEGO, California, USA Jul 7, 2007 Pours a light purple with a thin head. Taste of sweet raspberries. One glass was enough for me, however my wife loved it. WolfsBlood84 (103), Indianapolis, Indiana, USA Jul 7, 2007 Nice dark crimson/purple color, very thin beaded head. Very fresh aroma of tart and fresh raspberries. Love the taste in small quantites, but too sweet and acidic for mass consumption. Also, 2.5% APV makes me sad. gsmitty80 (630), Washington DC, USA Jul 5, 2007 Very thick beer with little to no head. Tastes of strong fruit and light alcohol. Basic generic rating (insert fruit flavor here).
