The base beer is the Wheat Grand Cru with raspberries added before secondary fermentation.
Raspberry Grand Cru has a vibrant red colour and a fine white head. The beer has a full raspberry fruit nose, a balance of sweet and sour fruit on the palate and a wildly refreshing zesty finish.

330 ml can sampled in 2007. Slightly unclear, deep golden/orange body with a medium sized off-white head. Aroma is light fruity with a hint of acidic berries. Flavor is mild and acidic raspberries and not so much more. Medium body and aftertaste. Not really bad. but not a hit either.

330 ml bottle, as Meantime Raspberry Grand Cru, from Vinmonopolet Vika. ABV is 5.5%. Very cloudy peachy to brown colour, large to moderate off-white head with a peachy hue. The aroma has strong notes of ripe and over-ripe raspberries (no surprise). The flavour has also notes of raspberries, but not as much as some Belgian fruit beers, and is not overly sweet. Refreshing wheaty notes, hints of citrus. Nice enough to drink, but not worth the price.

Bottle at home in London, shared with Lyoli. Pours cloudy, rich pink with a moderate but receding light pink head. Aroma holds some snappy raspberries, along with mild wheat and light bread. Flavor is lightly sweet with a mild tartness. Refreshing, with dashes of wheat and fine sugar, along with raspberry. Light bodied with average, tingly and massaging carbonation. Sharp finish, mild tart raspberries, some wheat and yeast. The wheat ale and the raspberries seem a bit disparate, but itโs still an alright beer.

Bottle. Pours an unclear, pinkish peach, with a quickly receding creamy foam. Aroma is light sour, with notes of citrus, hay and some fruit. Flavor is fruity and light sour, almost towards a touch of lambic-ish. A fresh fruity beer, but overall almost boringly average.

0.33l bottle. Pours a light cloudy deep orange body with a thin burgundy cut and a small islandy light pinkish head. I think it looks amazing. Aroma is light tart and mild woody with notes of brett(?) and some red fruits. Average carbonation, oily to sticky texture and medium-bodied. Tastes some light sour green apples, hints of wood and it ends dry with raspberries! Yeah, I did not notice it before the aftertaste but there's definitely some raspberries here. Not to bad and quite drinkable if you like this kind of beer..
