May 2, 2005 Well, it was an expensive coupla bottles. Good, slightly irony and stony fruit beer, never gets too sticky or cloying, potential bit of rough caramel lurking suggesting the BdG underneath, but ultimately stuck in the middle - not beer, somewhat naturally fruity but damn boring. No super obvious flaws... Man, what a winner!

Apr 19, 2005 750ml bottle best before Sept 2006. Brown-ruby body topped by a quickly vanishing light pink head. A strong aroma of raspberry permeates the air during the pour. Digging my nose into the glass I smell little other than raspberry. The flavor is earthy, dirt-laden raspberries, lightly tart, medium sweet. We’ve got nothing but raspberry juice here. The palate is light and spritzy. Not a good beer.

Apr 3, 2005 This beer deserves...needs...to be served as it warms; too cold and you kill off more than you do with an average beer. It comes across as a saison with a raspberry edge, and the raspberry grows as it warms. With a red-edge on a brown body, and a good off-white head, it drinks as a frothing beer while tingling with sourness, giving the sense of fruitiness on a complex Belgian body. Though there is a watery quality underneath. The beer is probably not exceptional beyond its aroma, but it is still solid across all dimensions, and worthy trying.

Mar 25, 2005 A deep red cloudy body with a light pink head. The aroma is an amazingly rich cherry with honey and flowers. There is a hint of some light balsamic vinegar. Very rich and fruity aroma. The taste is more dry than I expected. There is a hint of cobwebs and some light bread. The finish is slightly coppery. This is decent, but I would like either more sweet taste or sour character.
