Pour was purple with pinkish head, decent lacing. Huge aroma of raspberries. The first sip was striking...man, that’s a lot of raspberries. It makes New Glarus Raspberry Tart seem tame. Really, really sweet, difficult to drink with mild sour lambic notes...very mild. Hardly "beerlike" at all...just sweet raspberry mash. A little too much.

375ml bottle BB 21 Jan 2010. Was a bit suprised when I cracked open the crown seal to hear no pop...it didn’t occur to me that the beer ALSO had a cork, and I had to track down my ever allusive cork screw... Presented with a lovely deep, murky purple body with a rocky, creamy, dense pink head that creates a landscape of lace on the glass on the way down. Aroma is raspberry jam, straightup. Some vinous stewed fruits and natural yoghurt-like sharpness come through with a good swirl. Carbonation is lively without being overdone, body is thick near-syrup, suprisingly good length for a beer of the strength. Restrained sharpness, balanced with sweetness. I’m reminded bit of a raspberry yoghurt I have at work; lactic sharpness, creamy sweetness, tart raspberry. Finish is quite vinous with a bit of tannin and lingering stew fruit, slightly sharp but not dry. Excellent raspberry flavour, balance is more on the sweet side, but its certainly not cloying, and has an overall lightness that makes it quite enjoyable and drinkable.

Pours dark red with a pink head. Aroma is like a kick of raspberries, and that’s about it, but it’s not deterring. The flavor is quite sweet though, and is all right for the first few sips, but after a while, the sweetness is more than I can handle. There are some very minor hints of sour, but not enough to make the beer work exceedingly well. Finishes dry. All right enough.

Dark crimson colour with a jammy aroma. Taste has plenty of raspberry sweetness and a bit of sourness, though not enough. Non beer drinkers of my acquaintance enjoyed it immensely, comparing it to a British alcopop called Sweet and Sour Cherry Veba. This is probably not a comparison with which Brouwerij Lindemans will be particularly pleased.

Vale pelo que se propõe. Coloração vermelha intensa, creme denso e consistente. No aroma e no sabor, a framboesa, porém sem notas lupuladas. Final doce. Refrescante.
