Mar 22, 2007 750 ml bottle: Pours w/ a thin but lasting pink head and a garnet colored body. Initial aroma is of raspberries (go figure), sweaty leather, light wisps of cat box, and a bit of bready malt. As it warms the malt sort of takes over but still remains a bit sour in the aroma. Raspberries still assertive, but not as strong. Balanced to tart initially, but it is sweet/tart as it warms slightly. Sweetness up front, tart at the finish and into the aftertaste. Some earthy leathery flavors as well as a faint wheat malt. Lightly acidic, mouthpuckering tartness at first which you can actually feel, but very smooth and medium bodied. Lighter medium carbonation rounds out the m/f. Very nice beer for 4% ABV. Great complexities from the fermentation and not over powering on the raspberries.

Mar 14, 2007 Bottle shared thanks to CMUBEERMAN. Pours clear dark ruby with a thin pink head. Aroma is tart raspberry and flaky pie crust. Flavor is tart raspberry, tangy, wheat. This fruit beer has a nice body and is on the heavier side. This would make a great dessert beer, yet it’s not too sweet. Superior to Lindeman’s Framboise.

Mar 7, 2007 Bottle: Raspberry takes over your senses as soon as the bottle is opened. Strong aroma of the purest, thickest raspberry smell you can imagine. Pours a deep red with a modest pink head. The taste is pure raspberry fruitiness with a deep sweet and tartness. Like a raspberry syrup for waffles. Nice pucker sensation in the tail. A great beer - Thanks IndianaRed for sharing.

Feb 23, 2007 Not a big fan of raspberries, the reason I have not tried this before but felt it was now or never. Not bad. Strong raspberry aroma and flavor. It is sweet but that is more from the inherent sweetness of raspberries as this is fairly tart, not in a true Belgian sense of lip puckering but noticable. A very good beer but when I have a choice I will choose the Red over this.
