| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 2, 2009 Draught. Poured pale red with a thin white head. Raspberry aroma, and a little yeast. Raspberry flavour with a little bit of tartness and hop bitterness. Very light finish. I would drink this combined with a chocolate stout, or over iced cream, but by itself it’s cloying.

much more raspberry seed than raspberry syrup,
still way too sweet and fizzy for drinking, but nice for a toast or mixed drink. JAG55 (17), O’Fallon, Missouri, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 21, 2009 Bottle. Pours with a huge pink head over a vivid red body. A tart berries aroma, a sweet and tart rasberry taste, not strongly acid. A thin mouthfeel. coldmeat23 (233), Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 11, 2009 Pours a dark translucent red. Tiny pinkish head. Minimal retention. Great lacing.
Smell is sweet raspberries. Not much else here at all.
Sweet raspberries hit your tongue, hard. Fresh flavor, not artificial. Slight tartness follows and then finishes nicely sweet.
Great mouthfeel with just about perfect carbonation. Nice and creamy.
I find this to be the most balanced of all of the Lindemans fruit lambics. It is also highly drinkable, for a dessert beer, or anytime.
Enjoy!
