cheapdark (1605), Monacatootha, Pennsylvania, USA Feb 14, 2007 Updated: Jul 11, 2008On tap at the Bocktown bar in the Robinson twp shopping complex. I was very surprised to find it there. This stuff pours darkish red like fruity champagne. It has a light pink head that diminishes to a light pink froth. The aroma could be smelled from clear across the bar upon opening of the tap. As the glass was brought to me I could easily smell sweet berry cotton candy. The berry aroma is so pleasant! Tho the appearance is different, it smells alot like lindimans framboise. The first flavor impact is very pleasing, I really like this stuff. It is sweet, fruity and pleasant. This has got to be one of the better tasting beers I have ever tasted, how can this be rated as a beer? It is so nice, it lacks any of the negatives of the typical beer. I can’t taste any bitterness in there what so ever. This may not be quite as good as lindemans framboise but it is excellent none the less. Finish does not have any bitterness at all, none detected! Good, nice, repeatable and enjjoyable. I rarely drink another after a tasting session but I had to have another of these. Good thing this stuff is expensive or I’d be drinken it all the time. austinpowers (2828), New York, New York, USA Dec 6, 2002 A terrific raspberry lambic that’s not quite on par with Lindeman’s but beats all the others. Fairly sweet and deserves more credit than it’s getting so far. warrior (213), Mt. Wolf, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 12, 2004 Faint rasp aroma, clear ruby red color. Poured with a good head that lasted for some time, very effervesent. Good rasp flavor with a nice clean tart finish. The balance is good, tart but not to sour as some lambics I have had. I have to disagree with most ratings here and find this to be an excellent framboise. destroye7 (264), Melbourne, Australia Mar 14, 2006 Updated: Mar 18, 20068.4 Fl. oz bottle. Low carbonation, no head. Very dry. Sour taste that I like (really sour) You can taste the raspberry in there. Almost clear. My Girlfriend didn’t like it but I did. dwyerpg (2094), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Aug 29, 2005 More amber than red, but sure smells nice. I only have Lindemans to compare this to, but this is much more mild and far less pretty, but still a solid brew.
