0.25 l bottle as 'Rodenbach Fruitage' from 'Bierothek', 3.9% abv, best before February 2021. Clear, ruby with a thin, frothy, almost stable, white head. Sweetish, sourish, quite fruity aroma of redcurrant, raspberry juice, strawberry and a touch of lemonade. Rather sweet, slightly sour, quite fruity taste of sherbet powder, redcurrant, raspberry and strawberry, followed by a short, slightly tart finish. Thin to medium body, minimally astringent and quite effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Too sweet for my liking but not overly so, way more pleasant than 'Liefmans Fruitesse' for example. Nicely fruity and with a sourish touch to balance the sweetness, lacking the artificial flavours of its competitors.

Dull red brown colour. Aroma and flavour have some sweet and sour cherry notes. Cherry not my thing.

Pours crimson with a thin white head, opaque. Aroma of tart berries and stone fruit, plums. Taste has sweet and tart fruit puree notes, heavy influence of spiced malt. Palate has typical Belgian nose feel, residual stone fruit lingers on the tongue. Good.

Tap @Kufle i Kapsle in Warsaw. Red bright cherry spirit pour with a medium rose foam. Nose: red fruit candy, white wine. Mouth: tastes a bit artificially flavored, sweet red fruitiness with soda notes of Schweppes. Ok

4-pack of these 250ml cans. Pours a hazy deep red colour with a purple hue. The head is big, creamy, slightly pink with great retention and some creamy spot-waves. Cherry nose from the juice with other red fruits, so fruity aromas with sweet Belgian yeast. Hints of apple vinegar, sour fermentation. Written with 9% red fruit. Same nice fruity notes in the flavours. Not too sweet, not syrupy, just refreshing fruitiness and looking real good. I do like this one.

Bottle. Dark red color. Fruit yoghurt and cranberries in the aroma. Sweet and sour flavor with lots of berry fruit. Fruit yoghurt. The sweet, sour and berry combination works out beautifully. Surprisingly nice.
