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.

Poured from 8.4 oz can a hazy yellowish pink. Aroma of berries, malt and hops. Flavour of berries, full on. Girlie beer, yet tasty, bring on the hot days of summer again.

Bottle. BB4 12/12/08. Dirty pink grapefruit juice with a very thin white head. Definitely get the raspberry in the aroma. Sweet, raspberry, a touch acidic from the fruit or the Aged Pale. Not sure what others are expecting. A small sweet, somewhat refreshing, summer drink. With slogans "The Fruity Pink Beer" and "The Original Rose Beer", grapefruit colour, 4.3% ABV and the girl on the label it appears to attempt to be a beer for girls. If it supposed to be a fruit wheat then it misses the mark by a wide margin. Closer to a Floris.

Sampled at the 12th Annual Knoxville Brewer’s Jam. Pinkish cloudy with a light frothy white head. Harsh raspberries, medicinal. Taste is more raspberries over a decent smooth wheat body. Extremely sweet.

Personally, I think this beer gets a very bad rap. I had it on draft, and while the raspberry came across as a bit artificial, it was nowhere near other raspberry wheats I have had. Body has very, very good carbonation that makes it drinkable and not too cloyingly sweet.

Rule number one of fruit beers: Do not make it with aspartame. The dry, plasticky taste you detect in this is the stuff they put in diet soda.
