Belle-Vue Framboise

All right, but I’m not sure how authentic of a lambic this is. Smells of raspberries and slight non-descript sweet-syrupy notes. Distinct light red-amber-gold color topped by a fizzy white head. Medium-high carbonation. Starts out with a light whack of sugary sweet flavors and raspberries and finishes with a very light tart-sour finish. A nice light, refreshing after-dinner beverage, nothing too challenging.

Quite a unique gold/pink colour, with a good head. Aroma is clean, fresh, and while not immediately raspberry like, it is fruity and very appealing. Palate is light,with refreshing zesty, fruity, and cleansing flavours. This is a classic lambic, with all the clean refreshing character that these beers exhibit. Lovely!

Could almost use this as a sorbet before serving dessert. Light sherbety nose. Creamola Foam. Fruity, zesty. Light in body, with sweet/sour fruity notes. Really gets the saliva flowing. Too sweet for my taste but it could pass for dessert in a liquid lunch. (Bottle)

A dark Orange/Ruby color with a slight haze and an off-white head. Sweet berry with some wood & a slight tart scent. Very syrupy sweet up front with a bit of oakiness in the middle and just a hint of lambic tartness in the follow. As in their Kriek offering, this is fairly tasty but too sweet.

Bottled. Pours odd pink-brown. Decently sour lambic taste, but still kind of sweet. Picks up a little cork. Kind of ordinary and syrupy.

(Bottled) Clear amber color (filtered) with a large, lacy and quite lasting head. Slightly sweet, a bit artificial raspberry aroma with slight sour and ashy hints. Sweet, slightly oaky-ashy and acidic, straightforward raspberry flavor. Light to medium-bodied, a bit dull, fizzy-carbonated palate. A decent, sweet dessert (or beginners’) lambic, but can’t compete with Lindemans’ Kriek as one.

Bottle. Dark copper/amber colour with a large, slightly pink head. Aroma is tart raspberries. Taste is less raspberry and more, well, like beer. Still dominated by the fruit but also some light bitterness, a bit of wood and a light sour finish. Nice mouthfeel. I quite like this.

Orange, slightly pink, with off white lasting head. Rasberry aroma. Sour flavour with more rasberry and some vanilla (oak).
