Lekker bier met aangename tonen van hout en echte frambozen. De wilde gisting geeft ook z'n kenmerkende friszure karakter mee. Het oud bruin remt de frisheid wel wat af.
Tasted this at the Marine Hotel, Stonehaven on the 1st September 2020. Keg dispense, 1/2 pint sampled. Dark garnet in colour with a thin off white head. Malt on the aroma with ripe raspberry fruit evident but chalky overtone tends to mask this. Thin mouthfeel and good lacing. Dark malt gives a fruit loaf base with strong juicy plump but tart raspberry to the fore but little else. Slight bitter aftertaste comes through but fruit dominates. Finish is malty with raspberry notes still present on the palate giving a slightly tart note. Standard Flanders Red .
Von "sauer" merke ich nicht viel, aber von "Kirsch" war in diesem Sauerkirschenbier genug.
Es hatte einen intensiven Geschmack und auch eine dementsprechende tiefrote Farbe.
Ordentlich süffig, einzig ein paar mehr verschiedene Aromen wären nett gewesen.
Aber süße Kirschfreunde freuen sich sicher darüber.
0,33l can. Pours dark red with white head. Raspberries, yeast. Quite sweet, some sourness too. Medium bodied. Nice.
C: dark red brown
N: raspberries
P: raspberries, raspberry jelly, fairly sweet, hint of tart, jelly doughnut filling.
Très bonne bière, typique du style Oud Bruin mais la touche de framboise amène un côté sour très très agréable.
Bonne longueur en bouche sans acidité ni faux goût.
Un must absolu.
Aroma; berries, fruits, berry peel. Look; off-white head on mahogany body. Taste; fruits, berries, peel, funky raspberries, vanilla, malt notes, n finishes nice enough. Feel; ok body n co². Overall; it`s alright. [cleaning garaž solo tasting, wrapped in paper btl@Norway's Healthy Fluids Chain]
Mørk rød med beige skum. Lukter bringebærsyltetøy. Lett. Søtlig. Smaker bringebærsyltetøy og fruktose. Kort
From PET bottle, Beer Point RLZ, long lasting whipped cream head, clear dark red color, aroma and flavor of ripe raspberries, hints of candy and bubblegum, quite sweet but with a light balancing sourness. Not too complex, but really nice and enjoyable.
375ml bottle brewed in Belgium at 5%. Mahogany brown, perhaps a slight raspberry tinge. Small, short-lasting head. Prominent but not overblown raspberry aroma with some lurking cereal notes - hints of Raspberry Special K? Lowish carbonation in an interesting 'Bucks Fizz' vein from the mixed fermentation. Raspberry large and in charge, sweet but not overly so, with the Old Brown kicking in for a nuanced, lightly sour balancing finish. If you're someone who wants to enjoy fruit sours but they're just too sour, give this one a try and you might be in the pink. On the other hand, if you're not after a sweet (if not immensely so) beer and don't like raspberries, then, uh...go elsewhere.
Prijemnny lahky malinovy, zaklad Flanders red.
Paper wrapped bottle, at home. Hazy ruby colour, foamy pink head. Chemical, sweetened candy stuff, stevia, weird raspberry, no acidity, faint tart, off balance. Medium body, low carbonation.
Roze kleurend bier met een kleine schuimkraag, smaak van het bier is overwegend zoet en daarnaast veel smaak van framboos. Drinkt weg als frisdrank. (Mitra Xperience 2019)
Very drinkable
On tap at beer and beyond. Dark red-brown, raspberry, a little acidic aroma, sweet taste, a little sugary. Medium body, sweet raspberry finish.
Tap at Pi Altrincham. Sweet perfume, raspberries. Clear pink to red color with small sized pink head. Sweet raspberry taste. Thin body, soft carbonation. Very drinkable.
Taste of malt it’s low, very nice carbonated body. Flavour of bitter hops makes refreshing.
Appealing beer with marvelous and rich scent, beautiful in colour resembling dark raspberry juice. The beer wasnt sparkling with very low to now foam. Taste was average, however little watery for a frambozenbier and not so sour as I would expect. Overall average for the relatively high prize.
On ressent bien la framboise, cette dernière est bonne. Une pointe d'acidité aussi, sympa. C'est sucré, un poil trop peut-être. Ça se boit facilement tout de même
Bottle shared at a tasting at Tom's place. Deep red with beige head. The aroma is syrupy with notes of raspberry jam and some wood. The flavor is sweet and mild sour with notes of raspberry jam, some wood, sugar, a bit acidic. Slightly dry, medium-bodied.

In short: sweet raspberry one.
Did I enjoy it: as a refreshment, yes sir.
Pours hazy dark reddish with nice off white head. Sweet raspberries nose, sugary. Light to medium body, average carbonation, slick texure. Taste follows the nose, sugary, quite sweet. Refreshing, but lacking sourness.
Draught at Les 3 Singes, Colmar, France (€3.50/0.25l). Poured a translucent ruby red with a 1cm off-white head that retained well and laced well. Aroma quite sweet of fresh raspberry; very sugary sweet. Taste of quite sweet raspberry. Light body. Smooth with a thin mouthfeel and a rich, very sweet lingering finish.
Bue en pression au Bar Le 23 (Caen)
Faible carbonation.
Belle robe couleur mûre.
Goût de fruits, on ressent l'acidité de la framboise.
Elle est légère, sucrée.
Idéale à toute saison
Deliciosa
