(Bottle, thanks to Marsiblursi) Sampled at a tasting night at Marsiblursi’s place. Shady pink to red color, small pink to tan head. Intense sweet raspberry scent. Smells like raspberry jam with a hint of almond paste. Very nice smell! Sweet sirupy taste with warming alcohol, long sweet aftertaste. Smooth yogurt mouthfeel with a sweet finish. Medium bitterness.

Unclear mahogany with a short lived, off-white head. Raspberry completely dominates the aroma. Complex flavour, with acid from the berries, dry licorice and wood and a hint of alcohol. Entering these notes several months after tasting it at the beer festival (where I had no idea how strong it was or anything - Christian just said it was a nice new beer I had to try), I suddenly feel an urge to spend an awful lot of money getting a couple bottles to re-experience that flavour. Pricey, but on the other hand - decadence knows no price.

50 cL bottle. Pours deep amber with short lasting white/brown head. Aroma is very dominated by raspberry with some caramel notes. Taste is strange at the first sip, seems totally out of balance between the raspberry and caramel malt - but it is improved along the way - alcohol is extremely well hidden. Caramel out and raspberry on it’s own would be the traditional way to make this kind of lambic - but it works in it’s own way. Too expensive by the way. Bitterness in the finish is clearly from raspberry alone.
From tap at Ølbaren at Jannik and Bagers afskedsreception: clearly more balanced and soft after 2 years. There is a very minor note of both liqourice and sulphor, but most noticeable is that the raspberry taste that has become quite softly blended with the caramel flavour. Ver nice.

Bottle. A 13% fruit beer, among friends also known as "Date rape beer". Nice raspberry aroma, very powerful. Cloudy prune colour. Nice raspberry flavour, with berry bitterness. Nicely balanced. The beer seems to have a good alcohol balance, since I cannot taste the extreme level of alcohol.

(On tap) Slightly cloudy orangey brown with a small, off-white head. Extremely marked raspberry aroma. Quite full-bodied, sweet with extreme raspberry flavours. Tart, alcoholic with a fairly discreet bitterness. A very interesting fruit beer. 281006

On tap at Horsens Beerfestival. Unclear, brown-orange beer with a tan head. Beef-stock, malt, sweetness and raspberry in the aroma. The flavor has more raspberry, along with malt, stock and some alcohol. Full-bodied and quite sweet. The finish is raspberry-dominated, with alcohol and spicyness in the background. Nice one.
