750ml bottle from tesco, Camberley. A raspberry red colour with a billowing white head; fruity aroma; sweet fruity taste with a pleasant tartness; but overall too artificial, with no readily identifiable fruit. Not the best Belgian fruit beer.

Sample @ Dranken Geers, Oostakker. Orange/pink colour, light pink foam. Soft carbonation. Aroma of strawberry, grains, sugar and sweeteners. Sweet candy. Very sweet, light bitterness. No balance, too sweet. Not good.

On tap at some ski-shack type place up a mountain, near Chatel, France. Vile pinky red looks. Artificial sickly sweet perfumed nose and flavour. Maybe some rosewater notes - not really what I want in a beer. This really has nothing going for it: truly rank.

Bottle from Tesco, Enniskillen [240614]
Tizer red, large pink white head, good lacing
Aroma of red berries, slight fruit sherbert, floral, bit perfumy
Taste of soft red fruits, perfumy, floral, fairly sweet, slightly odd artificial notes in there, like an alcopop, flavour strangely ok though
Palate - soft carb, medium body, quite sticky, fairly sweet but not too much. Finish as main flavour, getting a slight hint of parma violets which is odd, slight bitter chemical linger
Overall - OK, I wouldn’t get this again, but I didn’t think it was as shit as most of the rates say here

Clear pinkish beer with a peachy sort of smell. Sweet with a touch of hop. A little sickly but it’s perfectly decent for a refreshing beer on a sunny day.
