Jun 17, 2008 Bottle 33 cl. Pours a pale pink with a small white head and a skunky lager aroma, with no fruits to be detected at all. The taste is certainly not bad, a full beerish taste with a little candy sugar sweetness and some cherry- or berry-flavour added too. Nothing special, but not really bad for what it is too.

Jun 7, 2008 Bottle at Chris_o birthday bash 08. Now everyone was fairly horrible about this beer, but I drank it quite easily and even had a second glass. OK so it isn’t really a beer so doesn’t score very highly but in terms of drinkability on a hot afternoon, it does the job. Very fruity aroma. Like kiddie’s sweets, but not overly offensive. It’s an ok sweetish fruit drink.

Jun 4, 2008 A poor rosé, I know some and not all is about aroma, it has a lot but unconsistent taste. Bad note for Gulpener, what still on my favorites

Jun 3, 2008 A Mes rate: Bottle at the Oi Oi Saveloy tasting at Chris O’s.
Bright girly pink. Probably looks great painted onto fingernails but not in my glass thanks. The aroma is actually quite pleasant. Artificial as hell and full of cardamine red boiled sweets. The flavour is what I would expect the stuff Sim buys from Lush to taste like should I be daft enough to drink it. Perfumed body wash. Erm... lovely.

Jun 1, 2008 330ml bottle at London tasting, May 2008 (courtesy hughie). BBE Aug 2009. Shocking pale pink colour. Smells of cherry cough mixture. Tastes of pear drops and cherry bombs. All very sweet, sticky and artificial. Pretty much as expected. "Beer with red fruit extracts" sums it up pretty well although the word "synthetic" needs to be in there too. Rather similar to Wittekerke Rose. Not very pleasant at all.
