On tap at Le sergent recruteur, copper-red hue, with a soft pinkish foamy head, with a sweet rapsberry aroma follws through on a medium-bodied very sweet and tart rapsberry palate, fruity raspberry flavors are dominating, soft tartness, with a good acidity in a sweet raspberry finish. A very good summer beer.

a sim rate: (on tap) For what it is, it’s a very nice fruit beer. It’s much smoother on tap than in a bottle. However, as far as beers go, it doesn’t taste much like one at all. I could just as easily been drinking juice! Very overwhelmingly fruity. But seeing as it was my last beer of a beer-drinking evening, it went down a treat.

S’been a long time since I’ve had this, and it’s actualy alot better than I remember; funny how your tastes evolve; aside from the woody and yeast nose, the loads of raspberry to me make it not overly appitizing for a beer; that why I had it for dessert; but, suprize, it’s not so sweet, it’snice and crispy and sour, woody, yeasty and fruity but not overly; very nice treat I should have revisited alot sooner

Bottle. Sour red raspberry aroma. Brown red color with small head. Sour raspberry flavor with hint of dryness and mustiness. Nice palate.

Bottle. Very sweet smell with a taste to match. More like a candy then a beer. Taste sticks to the tongue strongly. Somewhat appealing plumb colour with a suprising head. Personally I prefer my beer to not taste like a ’treat’

This beer poured a dark red color with very little head at all and left no lacing on the glass. The aroma was very nice: raspberry and sweetness with a bit of musty. I was worried about the flavor because I really don’t like the sour flavor of Lambics and I tend to stay away from them because of that. But this was great. It was lacking that extreme tart/sour characteristic that I don’t like in the Cantillon styles. Very sweet and smooth. Extremely well done.
