This cloudy red lager was my session beer during my five day stay in Montreal as I visited Dieu Du Ciel each evening. It’s topped by a large, frothy, pink head. Good retention. Tart, barely-ripe raspberries, light lemon and vanilla in both the aroma and every sip. Medium-bodied with lively carbonation. Finishes very tart and dry. I really couldn’t get enough of this stuff. World class thirst quencher! MartinT (5068), Montreal, Quebec, Canada

Tart raspberry, lactic, lightly dusty and yeasty aroma. Tart raspberry, dry and wheaty flavours, then finishing somewhat milky and dry. Very light and thin, but dry, incredibly refreshing, quenching, and juicy. I want some more! radiomgb (2068), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada

The aroma was of sour raspberries, tart, acidic, some lemon and wheat. The flavour was tart and sour, lots of raspberries, soft and perfumy, acidic. Dry mouthfeel, medium body, high carbonation. Finishes with a lingering sourness. Very refreshing. beanmedic (324), Hamilton, Ontario, Canada

The color is luminescent rasberry and makes you drool on a hot summer afternoon. Big rasberry and wheat aroma. Onlike Rasberry Mort Subite, this beer doesn’t have those sirupy mouthfeel and flavour. It’s got a nice acid bite with a big tartness and you sure can taste the fruit. You can even taste the seeds leaving your tongue a bit rough but wanting more. TimE (1354), Tokyo, Japan
