Anker Boscoulis

Brewed by Brouwerij Het Anker
Style: Fruit Beer
Mechelen, Belgium

Botle that I picked up at Dranken Geers, Oostakker, Gent, Belgium 31-10-09 Pours rich bloody red in colour with a light pinky head. The aroma is of a sweet shop idea of fruitiness, there is sugar, syrup and fruit concentrate in abundance. Taste is waaayyy too sweet but I have to confess its not unlikeable and actually rather moreish, there are strawberries, cherries and some redcurrant possibly. There is no denying that its a sweet shop idea of a beer, though I for one quite enjoyed it, maybe I needed a sugary fix at the time? A6 A4 F7 P3 Ov13 3.3

Bottle. Creamy off-white good mostly lasting head. Red-brown colour. Powerfull fruity/berries aroma. Light sweet moderate bitter flavor. Average moderate bitter finish. Oily and syruply palate. Nice beer.

Bottle from Dranken Geers. Clear red ruby colour thick lasting cream head. Sweet jammy red fruit aroma. This is just not very good. Some stewed fruit in mouth, but not very attractive. Just a bit artificial and crap really. Can I have a beer I like please as the last 3 have ended up down the sink?

Beer poured a bright red/amber color with a 1/2 white head. Clear body. Aroma gives off notes of citrus, berry. A bit boozy and with a mixed fruit nose as well. The taste is mainly blueberry, strawberry and some other mixed fruit. Although the beer is overall refreshing, the fruit tones taste a bit syrupy.

Bottle at home ... its no darklord ... so maybe its not fair to the beer... red copper ... sweet yeasty syrupy fruits ... over fizzy ... yeuch ... medicinal ...

330ml Bottle (Poatersgat, Brugge) - Red with a pinkish head. Sweet aroma with hints of blackcurrant and raspberry. Sweet taste with berries feautring prominently. Enjoyable.

This reddish brown beer poured into an Anker tulip with a decent off-white head and a strong cherry aroma. This is a very refreshing sweet fruit beer made with a variety of fruits. There is a pretty good caramel malt base to support it. Not a classic, but a pleasant drink.

Aroma is a gorgeous raspberry/cherry, malt and some yeast, hazy red/orange, pours a medium sized, fairly long lasting white head, and some pretty lace. Wow, tastes like wine gums used to, with cherry, raspberry and strawberry most prominent. Light bodied, lovely mouthfeel, sweetness is just right. Terrific!
