Aroma of candied malt, treacle and some mixed fruit, auburn, tiny toffee head. Strong taste of mixed fruit, some caramel, malty. Sweet, medium bodied, refreshing. A really nice treat. jackson220 (136), new lenox, Illinois, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Aug 29, 2007 Pours a clear ruby red brown brew with a thick pinkish white head. Fast dissolving head and leaves a sparce lacing. Aroma is sweet berries, roasted malt, and a touch of pepper. Taste is highly carbonated, very tart berries, more spice and hints of coriander & cinnamon. Finish is medium body, a little dry and a tart aftertaste. not bad, liked the red and white better... but very drinkable Defreni (1024), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Aug 27, 2007 Flaske. Lige ved at være god, skjuler alkoholen godt, men frugtsaften er en tand syntetisk i smagen og den er ikke balanceret. En af dem jeg drak den med kunne ikke finde øllen bagved frugtsaften, men sjov at prøve. Enjoyit (1746), Vadum, Denmark
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 26, 2007 Reddish amber of color with an off white head. An aroma of sweet malt and caramel. A flavor of sweet malt and port. ukoolaid (572), Amherst, Massachusetts, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Aug 24, 2007 Pours a dark orange/amber with thin off-white head. Aroma is fairly sweet malts with blueberry. Taste is more tart than the aroma would lead me to think. Full taste w/tart berries, strong alcohol, and a little hop bite in the finish. I like this as a desert beer. porterhouse (1161), Alna, Maine, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 24, 2007 (From bottle @ DFH event in Boothbay, ME 8/23/07) Rich berry taste but a little hot...Amber with light blue and purplish tints. Rich aroma of berries and malt. Mouthfeel fairly smooth, lightly sticky. Light rings of fine lacing. Tastes of fairly rich malt and berries, but alcohol not very well-hidden. jcr (1179), Jasper, Indiana, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Aug 22, 2007 There are certainly blueberries and raspberries in this beer. Unfortunately, the light aroma and muddled tastes overpowered by the alcohol don’t deliver for me. Average fizzy off-white head, clear copper body. Nose is malty with a light touch of hops. The flavor is earth topped with berries and the two flavors don’t jibe. Moderately sweet and lightly bitter. Medium body with a thin texture and soft carbonation. Tangy finish, but also quite alcoholic.
