Liefmans Frambozenbier

Formerly brewed at Liefmans (Moortgat)
Style: Sour Ale
Oudenaarde, Belgium

Bottle (375ml corked) at Københavnske Øldage. Murky, brown beer with a reddish hue, and a pinkish-beige head. Raspberries, sweetness, some cellar, caramel and spice-hints in the aroma. Raspberries, sweetness and cellar in the flavor. Not much cellar though. Slightly tart, citric and sweet mouthfeel. Acidic berry-finish. Nice one. (070512)

Bottle courtesy of HogTown Harry- thanks man! Pours out a murky, muddy raspberry ice tea colour. Very little head or lacing which was surprising. Smells like raspberry jam. Taste is very good- very raspberry forward but not sweet. Very clean finishing with some sour notes. A very refreshing beverage. Drinkability suffers some as I found the carbonation levels to be very high. I’ve been drinking a lot of higher test beers lately, so a step back at a summer thirst quencher is a treat. Not quite BG raspberry tart level but a great fruit beer in its own right.

2002 Vintage, 375ml bottle bonus from Beastiefan2k, thanks Eugene. Pours brown with a thin tan head. The nose has a lot of raspberry feels potentially artificial like the raspberry in lindemanns. The taste is full of raspberry but not entirely sweet, with some tartness on the back end. Its refreshing very carbonated and highly drinkable. Nice beer.

(375 ml bottle) Clear dark brown color, small tan head. Dominating raspberry scent, also a bit acidic. Acidic raspberry taste. Spritzy mouthfeel, no bitterness. A bit too much like a soft drink perhaps.

hazy pinky purple colour with a light bubbly head. Freshly picked raspberries, brambles and soft red fruits on the nose with a edge of sweet raspberry couli and a little sourness but not the funk. Good blend of the fantastic sour cheek puckering gueze and tart raspberries with a light fizzy wine character. An extremely drinkable beer but the kriek version is my favourite over this

Bottle. Hazy, burgundy, ruby appearance, small head. Bubbly. Earthy raspberry aroma. Flavor is, surprise, raspberries. Some wood flavors. Very sweet. Low alc, sour notes and tartness provide for a refreshing dessert drink.

a purple beer. My first one of those. Amazing interesting typically belgian beer. Raspberries dominate everything about this beer. The flavor was sweet but mostly tart Makes the inside of your mouth water! I was impressed even though Im not usually a big fan of raspberries. The mouthfeel was quite carbonated and sweet. very nice

very deep red colro, very nice pink head. Aroma is of tart and sour raspberries. Flavour is again, quite tart, and sour, but the raspberries really comes through. The finish is again very tart. Super nice beer, very interesting, the 1st flemish sour i have that is flavoured with fruit.
