Commercial Description:
This typical beer from Brussels finds its origin in the XIXth century. Slightly sugared and brewed on the basis of wheat beer and 100% natural fruit juice, it gives off a delicious taste of fruit which makes the happiness of the people of Brussels. A very refreshing, light and thirst-quenching beer. Rich and charming fragrance of red fruit and berries with some scents of flowers. Smooth beer, very mild and thirst-quenching, slightly sugared with a delicate taste of black currant, raspberry and bilberry.

Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Slightly hazy reddish with a pinkish head. Sweetish accents of forest fruits. Medium body, very sweet berry melange accents. No bitterness. The berry accents are so strong that they have to be artificial. But nice though. 190209

Bottled. A red beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of forrest fruits, and so is the flavor though with strawberries being most dominant, leading to a tart finish.

Towering, dense & fine pink head over orangey tinted red-purple beer. Shards of lace. "Fruit"-coloured marzipan smell, an aroma as from a pink marzipan pig at Santa Claus’ exhibits. Totally awful artificial colouring for the cheapest marzipan - must be the Santa Claus delivery at the paupers’ aid centre. Fizzy carbonation is the only thing to alleviate the cloying stickiness, filling a watery concoction. Awful - absolutely awful. If this beer means " the happiness of the people of Brussels I understand better why ’the capital of Europe’ is such an utter mess.
