COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Also marketed as Rosarda in the UK
A blend of regular Wittekerke, the best Belgian wheat beer, known for its fruity aroma and taste, together with 10% of the purest Raspberry fruit, and a dash of the Petrus Aged Pale ale, the original mother beer that is aged in oak for up to 3 years. This combination is made in heaven, beer-heaven at the Bavik brewery in Belgium.

Pink, gak! Light grainy aroma, also lots of sweet berries. Cherry and raspberry taste - very sweet. Quite smooth malty base is nice though. At least it’s a natural fruit taste. Refreshing cool in summer, I guess. However, I’d not waste the Aged PA on making this - that’s best on its own.

Angeloregon (2054) - Portland, Oregon, USA - APR 1, 2008
From a small energy drink-like can--Poured a hazy pink-golden color. Dry, sweet, and fizzy. Great mouth feel. Clean, crisp, and mildly tart. Truly sessionable

DSG (2635) - Tel Aviv, ISRAEL - APR 1, 2008
(3/2/08) A draught sample shared by someone (thanks) at Zythos Bier Festival 2008 in Sint Niklaas. Hazy orange-pink color. Sweet saccharine berry aroma. Super sweet artificial gummy-bears berry flavor. Light-bodied. Horrible.
Note: I think I might have over-rated this one.

TrefwoordPunk (652) - Leiden, NETHERLANDS - MAR 25, 2008
Bottle 33cl. Pours a hazy pink with a small white head and a very sweet raspberry aroma. For this style the beer tastes pretty good. Not sickly sweet but mostly a natural raspberry-juice flavor. Pretty good for a rosé-beer

Bullit (3198) - Burgos, SPAIN - MAR 23, 2008
Hazy pink colour, white head. Aroma has raspberry and sweet candy. Flavour has raspberry with something sour. Can be refreshing, but boring.

toccata (70) - grembergen, BELGIUM - MAR 23, 2008
Nice warm pinky color with white pink head. Aroma is like fruity candy with some whithbeer cararteristics. taste is not bat but a little to sweet, and fruit extract like. a commercial beer with a refresching fruity afthertaste.

Nate (3026) - Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA - MAR 13, 2008
Draught at Sharp Edge. Saccharin raspberry syrup sweet. A little sour mash but mostly a very fruity sweet nose. Pink hazy body with white lacing head. Medium watery body with medium-light carbonation. Big syrupy sweet fake berry taste. Cloying and overly sweet. Can’t taste any other character in this beer. Cloying finish and sweet after that tastes like it had aspartame in it. Blech.

Hey! I’m drinking this out of a can…How am I supposed to know what it looks like (I’ll give it a 3 to be safe). Noticing the aroma from just out side the pull tab I get a musty, sharp yeast and alcohol scent. Not promising. The redbull like can spills its contents into my gullet where I find it to be a sweet, yeasty, raspberry, alco-pop. Funny stuff really. Wet carbonated mouth feel. This is not really bad, just not good.
