bu11zeye (5430), Frisco, Texas, USA Aug 6, 2009 (Draught) Pours a cloudy deep red body with no head. Aroma of leaves, grass, raspberries, and straw. Flavor of tart raspberries, light citrus, and earth with a dry finish. Excellent! Madsnp (611), Odense C, Denmark Jul 17, 2009 Tap at WSF. Slight hazy red coloured with no head. Aromas of spice, sour raspberries and vinegar. Dry and tart flavour with notes of dust, vinegar, raspberries, funk and red currants. Very fresh and fruity. Great. MesandSim (5790), London, Greater London, England Jul 6, 2009 A Mes rate. Barrel at the Weekend of Tarts. My word, this was a good one. It’s quite some time since I have looked forward to something as much as this and it actually exceeded my expectations. Looks wise, it’s a vision of cloudy pink / red awesomeness. Aroma reminds me very much of the original Cantillon Framboise. The flavour is utterly stunning. Just the right amount of incredible raspberries that never overpower the sublime base lambic. I’m unusually lost for words here. Downable as hell. A perfect balance of juicy fruit and pucker sourness. Length is out of this world. Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant beer. diabel (1366), Aarschot, Belgium Jul 3, 2009 Draught at Weekend of Spontaneous Fermentation Hazy, red/pink body. Acidic aroma of raspberry, strawberries, ... Soft, lightly acidic, moderately sour flavour. Hints of vanilla. Oakes (8058), gone rambling, Vietnam Jun 21, 2009 Pinkish ruby colour. Flat. Full fruity aroma (rasp.), almost a bit of rhubarb. Tart body, but accessibly juicy with robust fruit and a great body. Long, woody finish. Wonderful. For me, best of show at the WSF. Beershine (2678), Hue, Vietnam Jun 11, 2009 Draft at WSF. Hue is jewel candy-red, a pristine and perfect color. Aroma is subtle raspberry, subdued sourness, some wood, and lingering lactic notes. Flat easy palate. Exceptional flavor profile, but not a lot of funk. Is rather sophisticated, refined. Lots of raspberry seed flavors. The fruit is at once powerfully dry yet subtly sweet. One of the most memorable beers at the festival. Dedollewaitor (3625), Odense, Denmark Jun 10, 2009 Tap @ WSF. Pours a unclear bloody red with no head. Sour dusty raspberries. Fresh, tart and very funky and fruity. Nice. ChristianScheffel (4431), Odense, Denmark Jun 10, 2009 Cloudy red with no head. Aroma has funkiy hay, wood and leather and lots of raspberries. Quite acidic with funk and berry flavours
