Our seasonal beer to celebrate summer: lots of raspberries with a touch of rhubarb for the indulgence. A refreshing and regressive beer to be enjoyed in the sun.

Fruity, tart taste with raspberries, rhubarb, strawberries and citrus. No bitterness. Medium body, dry. Tart, fruity and refreshing. Very nice.

Tap at the brewery. Murky dull reddish. Lots of fruit puree, wheat, vanilla, creamy oats, berry galore. Over light sour and sweet. OK but very smoothie like.

How does La Source manage it that every La Source beer tastes like it says on the can or bottle? Big compliment 😉.
Tasty fruity sour! Nothing more, nothing less.

Draught Thick pinkish head over pinkish tinted terra-cotta beer, very muddy. Strangely served a serious tad too cold. Delicate raspberry aroma and hints at lactic acid. Strawberry aroma too. Raspberry sauce with a creamy feel and even taste, lactic acid-laced raspberry jam. Little or no evidence of the rhubarb, strangely even not in the acidity. Chewy MF because of all the fruit, but not heavy at all. It appears utterly natural, obviously, but it misses a bit of the "wow"effect some similar beers show.
