Commercial Description:
Also marketed as Rosarda in the UK
A blend of regular Wittekerke, the best Belgian wheat beer, known for its fruity aroma and taste, together with 10% of the purest Raspberry fruit, and a dash of the Petrus Aged Pale ale, the original mother beer that is aged in oak for up to 3 years. This combination is made in heaven, beer-heaven at the Bavik brewery in Belgium.

Bottle. Slightly cloudy, pink colour. Small stable pink head. Sweet flavour, quite a lot of raspberry. Slight acidity and aspartam in aftertaste. Starts off OK, but gets yucky after a while.

Pretty tart. In fact, a little too tart for my taste. It’s a shame, because Wittekerke is my favorite Wit, and I had high hopes for this Rose, but it was an overly tart disappointment. Further, it lacked the interesting aroma or character of a Lindemans Framboise, but then again, it’s 1/5th the price. It came in a pink can, by the way.

Can Sampled with Stegosaurus. Pours a hazy orange pink color with an off-white head. Aroma is sweet, raspberries. Flavor is sour and overly sweet.

Pours pink with a nice white, crispy froth that settles quickly. Not unlike a hot pink teddy with white lace. Great raspberry flavors. Has a nice sweetness and it’s not sour like a Lambic. Very refreshing and DANGEROUSLY easy to drink. Better than any American cooler. A hit with the girls. Highly recommended. My girlfriend loves it.

Can. Hazy orange-pink body under a frothy white head. Lots of carbonation. Bonus points for not being filtered. Straightforward aroma of tart raspberries and coffee cake. It smells very nice, really - fresh off the bush. The flavor is dissapointing as the raspberries are less sweet and bold giving way to sugar cookie and light grassy bitterness. Acidic lemony, metallic finish. The mouthfeel is fizzy but it has some viscosity to keep the flavor around. This stuff isn’t bad for a fruit beer targeted at youngsters as there’s still some complexity to it and it’s tart instead of sweet.
