St. Louis Framboise

12oz bottle. Pours deep dark clear purple with a one 2 finger pinkish head that leaves decent lacing. The nose is all raspberries. The taste is overly sweet raspberry preserves and jolly rancher candy. Medium mouthfeel. Good, but much too sweet for me.

Draft @ Abbey Brewing Company. Pours dark pink with light pink head. Aroma is all raspberry. Sweet raspberry flavor with a tart finish. Light body with effervescent carbonation. A nice dessert beer.

Draft. Pours red with a pink head. Fruity sweet aroma like raspberry candy. The flavor is Lindeman’s like, raspberry sweetness, and sugary candy. Not bad I guess, drinkable.

Beautiful in the glass, a clear red strawberry hue - the flavor is bitter and sour at first, and then the taste of raspberries takes over your whole mouth.... The bitter sour starter keeps this from being a sticky sweet mess, and tones the whole thing down.

Bottle. Red colour with a small dense long lasting pink head. The aroma fills your nose as soon as you remove the cap, raspberry! Moving the glass up to the noise adds some hint of tartness. Flavor is first a little bitter and sour, then the raspberry shines through a bit fermented. It has a lovely sour-sweet raspberry finish.

Bottle: Ruby pour with a thin pink head- some visible proteins. Syrupy sweet aroma of raspberry jam and not much else. Sweet flavor with just a light tartness (not lacto nor pedio). A candied raspberry sweetness bombards the flavor- along the lines of Lindemans. There’s a touch of oxidized character at the back. Not one for Lambic lovers- but perhaps for the unrefined palate of a young female.

From bottle, Red clear beverage with huge pinky head, smells like cherries and some bitterness, I like the sour tastes inside, cool and refreshing, some raspberries and some tonic bitterness in the aftertaste. nice

Mini growler from Half-Time. Pours a light crimson, reminiscent of cranberry juice. Soft pink head which vanishes to just a wisp almost immediately. Hint of esthers, and a load of fruit. Medium body with light carbonation. Sweet, but not cloying. Finishes slowly with a light lifting sour.
