Poured from 650mL bottle (stamped release 38 - from 2015). Clear salmon orange with very quickly dissipating white head. Lots of raspberry on the nose with some gentle tartness and bready Belgian yeast. Taste has subdued raspberry upfront with Belgian yeast, some feint tartness. A little bit of an odd combo, but decent. Definitely not an acid bomb, the sweetness of the berry vs the sweetness of the yeast doesn't totally meld for me. Unsure if this is due to its age. Okay.

Pink color with slight berry aroma. The raspberry flavor is not overly strong, but it hides the typical tripel aroma and flavor. Okay.

Bottle: Poured an orange with white head. Aroma is light fruit raspberry. Taste is off not good like drinking a raspberry air freshener.

Bottle tasted on the 25/03/2017 at the Barcelona Beer Festival. Clear reddish amber colour with a minimal and fizzy head. Aroma of raspberries, syrup and light medicinal. Taste has lots of medicinal and sweet raspberries. Light carbonation and body. Not for me. Next one please!

Sampled on draft at Hough’s this beer poured a hazy red color with a medium sized foamy white head that left decent lacing. The aroma was tangy with a hint of vinegar and faint berries. The flavor was tartish and a bit jammy with vague berry, cardboard and a bit of artificial sugar. Medium length berry and jam finish. Medium body. Disappointing.

On tap. Pours a clear red with a medium, frothy, long lasting, off-white head that laces nicely. Sweet, fruity aroma of raspberries with a hint of tartness. Sweet flavour of raspberries, Belgian yeast and wheat malt with a dry, tart, slightly acidic, boozy finish. Medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation. A very nice fruit beer.
