375ml. purchased at Whole Foods Vienna, VA. Last brew rating while I’m home in DC for the Turkey Day Holiday. porus red with a thin half finger head. Nose is very sweet and is fully raspberry. Taste is sweet and tart with a little of acidic bitterness. Overall pretty good, little too much bitterness for me.

Darker red- brown coloured beer with very little carbonation and a small white head. Fruity, little sour raspberry aroma. medium palate. Finish is fruity, raspberry with a tart-sour touch.

Both the bottle and draught versions of Boon’s framboise are too sweet for me; way to sweet in fact. I like my lips to pucker when I drink lambic so this one isn’t for me.

An attractive dark ruby colour with a small but sustained head, the aroma was of ripe raspberries underscorred with some delicate maltiness. Medium body and quite light carbonation. Fruity sweetness on the palate, well balanced by a sharp tartness which fades nicely onto the finish.

Poured an appealing light red/pinkish color with a good amount of carbonation and champagne-like bubbliness. Sour, funky, candy-like aroma with a mouthwatering raspberry character and a faint mustiness. Flavors were fairly straightforward... sour candy raspberry--more sweet than sour--and some faint woody musty notes. Mouthfeel was bubbly and champagne-like with a slight acidic/dry finish. Overall this was not all that complex of a lambic... I kind of wanted more intensity and more SOURNESS... plus it was a bit on the expensive side. But good stuff nonetheless, worth trying at least once.

Hazy red, no head. Aroma is soapy with a tart raspberry scent. Flavor is very dry raspberry flavor like if it was just a raspberry peel, classic soapy belgian gueze taste. Flavor is a lot drier than I thought it would be tart. What a great gueze with fruit added.
