(Bottle) Golden amber colour with foamy, white head. Fruity nose with wood, raspberries, vanilla, hay, apricots and pink grapefruit. Fruity, tart taste with notes of raspberries, wood, hay, pink grapefruit, a nutty and citric touch of champagne and a dry and tart finish with hardly any bitterness. Light body, dry. Spritzy mouthfeel. Fairly straightforward, but tasty and refreshing. Nice one.

Brilliant name, well-made, not trying to be a Belgian. Fruitiness is present, but not overwhelming

Hazy nice color with a fine head. Ok lacing. Fine intensity in the aroma. Medium body and a tad rich carbonation level. A bit fizzy mouth feeling. Pleasant acidity and a quite dry texture. Nice raspberry picture in the flavor. Refreshing and nice.
