Sweet, fruity, raspberry aroma. Clear, red coloured with a short pink head. Fruity (raspberry) taste, quite sweet and more sour/bitter in the finish. Dry beer. not really interesting.

Best by Sept 17 2006 - Pours a dark ruby with a large light maroon head that quickly collapses. The aroma is tart raspberries, sugar, as well as hints of barnyard. The flavor is light raspberries up fron then some acid and sweetness kick in, bringin ti all to a close is an envelope of fruit tartness. Body is medium-light and it goes down easy. A very drinkable lambic and a likely candidate for a "starter" lambic. Not nearly as funky as others and as a result just a little more simple and not quite as good. Still it is a highly drinkable and enjoyable beer.

Bottled @ Belga Queen, Brussels: Nice reddish colour. Discrete off white head. Is very fruity in the aroma with a light sourness in the background. Flavour is nicely sour. Has a balanced raspberry sweetness to balance the sourness. Has a long lasting on the palate, and is very fresh and dry.

Bottle. This is the beer that my wife and I toasted with at our wedding! Big raspberry and oak in the nose. First thing that hits your tongue is tart rasberries and lemon with a earthy background. Very drinkable. Great celebration beer.

(1997 bottle in 2004): The sweetness of raspberries permeates the beer’s fragrance as prickly funk slowly seeps from beneath...Acidity tries to take control at first but stops short of enjoyment and is overtaken by brown sugar...If midnight is sweetness and noon acidity, this is a minute or so before sunrise...Thanks Josh!...
