M0RHI (1067), Luxembourg, Luxembourg Mar 7, 2007 Bottle. 5.7% ABV according to the label. Bubbly chestnut to red colour, thick white head. Raspberry, sweet and slightly acetic notes in the nose. Mouth is dull raspberry, slightly sweet and lasting dullness. Dusty. Average. Rich dull palate. OK, but nothing special. onlyrocknroll (218), Cork, Ireland Mar 3, 2007 Reddish-brown, with a quickly disappearing head. Very sweet palate dominated by the raspberries, with a dry finish. Ok, but very one-dimensional cgarvieuk (4159), Edinburgh, Scotland Mar 2, 2007 copper coloured , light nose, with a stong fruit flavour, tasty but nothing complex . DarkFaerytale (21), Melbourne, Australia Feb 23, 2007 bottle, served in tulip - aroma was very sweet/ bubblegum, nice dark red color but quite cloudy, flavour is tart and highly carbonated, reminds me of cordial and mineral water to be honest, it’s nice, maybe one for the little lady, i won’t be going back Jukkabro (2981), Tampere, Finland Feb 11, 2007 Dark red colored, little yellow head. Extremely strong raspberry in aroma with some bubblegum. Thin to medium bodied. Flavor is slightly sour with dominating raspberries and bubblegum also in aftertaste. Refreshing and easy to drink. High carbonation, some skunkiness also in aftertaste. Beer2000 (1775), Kristiansand, Norway Feb 7, 2007 375ml bottle. Red body with a rather small head. Aroma is artificial raspberry juice. Flavor is as expected sweet and raspberry. Nothing for the lovers of real lambic, kriek and framboise lovers, but I have to admit its quite refreshing served cold on a hot day. Actually better than B-V kriek. DarkMagus (433), San Jose, California, USA Feb 1, 2007 Thin, slightly pinkish head that fades quickly but leaves a thick ring of bubbles around the rim of the glass. Sweet, sour, musty, fruity aroma. Sour raspberry flavors, some musty, woody, funky elements along with a hint of candy-like strawberry. Pretty interesting. Amazingly crisp and dry. Dries up almost instantaneously. Pretty decent stuff. Miksu (2187), Jyväskylä, Finland Jan 10, 2007 0.375 l bottle. Deep amber-red color. Sweet aroma with plenty of raspberry, strawberry and parfumy rose. Horsey and acidic lambic aromas in the background. Sweet strawberry and raspberry flavors, very juicy. Some acidity but clearly more on the sweet side. Sugary palate.
