Red and clear. White "head", rather severed head. Smells of raspberries (no favourite of mine), wheat, sourish...yeast, elderberries now that I know it. Taste is sweet, sour and totally lacks bitterness. It’s ok. I prefer the kriek because I prefer cherries before raspberries anytime.

[bottle from peckhams] aroma is raspbery, too sweet, another bloody alcopop. Have they started packaging Archers aqua in lambic bottles?

Really nice and rasberry out its nut, sweeter than expected and not very sour, need to get it again.

Overall a little beet to sweet to my taste, artificial maybe. I had better ones. I had this one as draught.

(Bottle 25 cl) Clear, red beer with a pinkisk head. Sometimes the blend of sweet raspberries and tart lambic can be a heavenly experience, bu not here. It seems as if sweet and sour are constantly battling each in one inharmonious mess. No real winner - and certainly not my tastebuds. 240899

Glowing red, with a light pink head. Raspberry syrup aroma dominates. Sweet raspberry flavour with some mildly acidic notes in the finish. Medium bodied, ok but too sweet.

Deep red with an ok head. Big raspberry aroma. Somewhat sourish raspbery flavour, refreshing, but gets too sweet in the long run.

Red, quite carbonated, with a bubbly head. Aroma from raspberry and almond. Flavor brings raspberry, cider, candy. Quite fresh, mild finish and a good one to be a fruitbeer.

(Canned) Red colour. Dissapearing bubbly head. Way to sweet fruity flavour of raspberries. sweet artifivial flavour of raspberries. hints of syrup. Light acidity in the finish.

Canned. Copper colour with a pink head. Way too sweet; both in aroma and flavour. A lot of sugary berry-flavour. More lemonade than lambic.
