1.2 Full sucre c’est difficile de faire plus C’est un sirop y’a pas plus à dire
2.8 Bottle. Pours nearly clear ruby with airy pinkish head. Clear aroma of fruit and yeast, with some malty touches. Sweetish flavour of malt, yeast and strawberry jam (somewhat artificial), with bitter touches of hops. Estery and jammy aftertaste with bitter touches. Well, nothing special about this macro fruit beer but it is drinkable.
3.0 Bottle, 6%. Mild berry aroma. Seemingly hazy deep red colour. White to pink head. The flavour is quite sweet and sugary with a mild and well-rounded berry note, but not extremely sweet. Some beer flavour in the finish, and fortunately not too bitter.
2.9 Review: 25cl very small bottle of Grimbergen Rouge: 6.0% vol. Grimbergen Rouge with a red cap, comes in a very small bottle, 25cl! Bought in discount store, very cheap. Also comes in 33cl, 75cl and in 500ml cans and on draught in the odd place in France and Belgium. On pour getting a lovely red raspberry coloured beer with purple streaks, and a very nice frothy white head, looks good, very appealing on the eye. Very good lacing on the glass. Smell is of strong strawberries and cherries. Very nice, oh man it is very good on the nose, very pronounced. Love it. Initial impressions on the taste is this is a very light beer, very light and faint, and a bit watery too. Getting a strong strawberry flavour with cherries and peach, and a slightly astringent taste that seems artificial. Small bottle, but got a decent amount out of it all the same. Overall it is like a fruit juice, relaxing after a while and it did grow on me over the time sipping it, but not really anything special and won’t be buying again.
2.9 bottle. clear red fruity red, smooth pink head. aroma of red fruits and a little bit of red fruit marmelade, but not too sweet. flavor is ordinary fruit beer, a bit watery, the beer ins certanly not lambic, but generic belgian beer, coming to think of it, generic belgian beer goes better with fruits than the stuff they put into a radler kind of beer. tastes like a fruit sodapop but with some beer and alc bitterness and the texture you would expect from a beer. certanly a drink to divide people, some will probably find it okay to good, some will really, really dislike it. Personally i much prefer the more citrussy lambic based belgian fruit beers. For a non-sour fruit beer this one is just as good as all the other ones out there.
1.2 Ribena øl
3.6 Fruitig biertje met een iets lekkere afdronk. Donker rood bier, wel lekker. Zeker niet zoet.
3.1 Flaske: Hindbærsaft. Ligner det med et fint skumhoved. Duften erhvinende sød men med en anelse belgisk gær. Smagen er igen meget sød, men den belgiske gær og en snert af alkohol gør det drikbart. Ikke så slem som forventet.
2.0 owocowe, czuc belgie, truskawki, czerwone owoce
2.3 Botella. Red amber colour, bubbly pinkish like ok lasting head. Sweet candy red berry / straeberry siruppy aroma. Ok a palate. Sweet flavour of raspberry syrup with plastic notes along with something bit malty, not pleasant a flavour....
3.2 Lucerna
2.8 33 cl bottle poured in to a Flute. Clear ruby colour with a creamy pink-ish head. Sweet aroma with red berries, sugars, caramel malts and fruits. Taste is sweet. Medium bodied. Sweet finish with fruits and red berries. Too sweet for my liking.
1.5 Udseende: mørk kirsebær rød og klar. Lyserød tykt skum. Aroma: noter af jordbær og tranebær. Smag: medium krop med tydelig smag af frugt. Frugtsmagen er meget koncentreret med et let bittert finish (ikke humlebitter)! Floral og jordagtige noter fra humlen.
2.5 Bottle. 6.0%. Best before 02.21. Pours a deep, reddish amber, with a pinkish head. Good lacing. Raspberry aroma, on a cereal and overripe fruit background. Notes of yeast and light caramel malt. Light dusty note as it warms. Flavour is raspberry, a bit sugary, hinting at caramel malt. Finish is a bit dry, with a disguised bitterness. Lingering grassy note. Overall so-so. The raspberry is fairly nice, but the beer behind it leaves something to be desired. 19.06.20.
2.0 Вообще не руж
0.8 Not bier
2.8 Pink color with medium lacing off-white head. Aroma has sweet fruits like strawberries and hint of cherries. Taste is fruity with long sweet aftertaste. Flavors of strawberries, cherries, peach and sugar.
1.8 Pink-ish colour. Hazy, with some foamy head. Smells overly sweet, strawberry, cherry and sugary. Similar artificial sweet tasteprofile. Too much for my taste. The bottle looks alright, I guess?
2.1 Uitzicht: Vreemde, wazige, roze kleur. Aroma: Fruitig, zoete aardbeien, kersen (en misschien appel). Smaak: Zoetig, tarweachtig, fruitig. Mondgevoel: licht en waterig. Totaal: Het was veelbelovend, maar werd een enorme teleurstelling

1.0 Very, very pour rouge beer. So bad I almost threw it away. Funky, watery, artificial, insipid and totally unsatisfying. Avoid.
3.0 Butelka z datą przydatności 07.12.2019. Piwo w barwie czerwonawe, wysycenie średnie, piana spora i zostawiająca solidną koronkę na szkle. W aromacie i smaku mocna owocowa (czerwone owoce), ale trochę sztuczna nuta. Dochodzą do tego akcenty belgijskich drożdży. W smaku jest słodko (chyba piwo dosładzano). Pijalność jest ok, ale nie można się uwolnić od wrażenia, że odczucie zapachowo-smakowe są sztuczne.
2.7 I have bought this beautiful industrial juice, at the coop city, at Lausanne. Drinking it, on friday, at the flat of Guillaume, at Lausanne. The body is red/pink and slightly troubled, sparkling carbonation, thin and white foam. In my point of view, this one is too industrial, artificial side of red fruits, too sweet, sugar, side of malt, little hop, this one is not subtle.
2.8 Jasno czerwone piwo o średniej pianie, która zdobi szkło i pozostaje do końca w formie warstewki na powierzchni. Aromat truskawek i trochę wiśni. W smaku słodkie, owocowe. Goryczki brak. Ogólnie niestety bardziej soczek niż piwo, wypić i zapomnieć.
2.6 Appearance: Dark burgundy (Wine) Fine ale foam. Everything is very beautiful. Aroma: Berry-malt. (Raspberry strawberries, a little cherry). harmoniously not in the "lemonade" is very balanced. Taste. balanced like aroma. Malt base with berry notes. But Lemonade kills everything ...
2.3 Strange, hazy, pink color. It's fruity, has a sweet strawberry, cherry (and maybe apple) aroma. Taste is strange: It's wheaty, fruity and alcoholic. It was promising but became a huge disappointment
3.0 330ml bottle. Pours purple with a medium-sized pink head. Aroma is cherries and strawberries, rather artificial. Taste is medium sweet, wheat, berries. Light sweet finish.
2.9 Ну слабенько, конечно, эль с фруктовыми тоннами, скорей всего вишня, земляника чувствуеться, пьётся легко, девушкам понравиться, опытному же человеку покажется химозным.
2.9 Pours a dull, dark red body with a large, fairly creamy, short-lived, pink head. Moderate aroma of raspberries, cherries, and some strawberries. In the back there are notes of candy, tutti frutti, and a touch of Belgian yeast and minerals. Moderate flavour of raspberry jam, white sugar, cherry jam, grapefruit, and grapefruit zest. Moderate sweet taste with a light bitter zesty finish. A strange creation, but not too bad. [50 cl can, enjoyed 7 months before BB date, from Franprix Rue Campagne Première, Paris]
1.7 Aromat sztuczny i plastikowy, czerwone owoce, żurawina, winogrona, lody owocowe z dodatkiem tony aromatów z tym mi się kojarzy to piwo. Słabo. Wygląd: barwa to głęboki rubin, lekko mętne, piękna drobna i kremowa piana która zostawia bardzo ładny lacing. W smaku o Chryste ciernisty jakie to jest niedobre, lekki charakter belgijskich drożdży po czym wjeżdża tyle chemii, że po tym piwie chyba człowiek świeci w ciemności. Jest tak sztuczne i niedobre, że pierwszy był będzie ostatnim. Plastik w płynie coś okropnego! Podniebienie: średnio nasycone, niskie ciało, w ustach zostaje posmak plastiku. To piwo to po prostu okropieństwo. Chciałoby się powiedzieć Carlsberg i wszystko jasne ale jest nawet gorzej. Po prosty a kysz i do kibla. 1.7/5.0 i żeby nikogo nie podkusiło żeby to kupować.
