3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
(Bottle) Hazy ruby orange with big white head. Unusual aroma: funk, vinous and sharp fruit. Light and refreshing with big loose carbonation. Dominant flavour is sour fruit, and not just subtly sour, which resolves itself as raspberries after the initial assault has subsided. There are some interesting earthy notes - tobacco and licorice maybe. There are also some vinous, vinegary notes. The finish though is a pleasant mildly tart fruitiness with no hint of bitter. Overall it is a little confronting in taste, and even aroma, but it does dare to be different and it largely works.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
bouteille 33cl, BB 12-07-2013.
Cuivrée-acajou trouble, col rosâtre disparaissant vite.
Arôme est léger restituant bien la framboise avec un léger bouquet froment-grains suivi par un houblonné léger donnant qcq notes de citronné.
Palais présente une belle effervescence, note de framboise qui garde là tout son aspect terreux et légèrement aigre. Une fois à la mi bouteille, la levure se fait plus présente, et le côté purée de framboise ressort plus. Le houblon rajoute une pointe de fleuri qui avec le fruit pique un peu au palais restituant là les caractéristiques de la framboise. Petite note douce collante aux lèvres pour ponctué le tout. Léger et agréable à boire.
