Bière de blé sure brassée avec des framboises
Le goût surette dominant de la Solstice d’été est obtenu naturellement en laissant surir le moût non bouilli durant quelques jours. Le tout est complété par l’ajout durant la fermentation d’une quantité phénoménale de fruits entiers. Il en résulte une bière très rafraîchissante dans laquelle l’acidité et le fruit utilisé dominent sans partage.

(341ml bottle from phyllomedusa) Pours a lightly hazed pale fuchsia colour with a small off white ring of stable bubbles and spotty lace. Aroma of seriously juicy fresh raspberry flesh with just a little jam, very intense, hints of other tart berries (red currant?), sweet backing notes, kind of candied, subtle lactic tartness, maybe a little wheat. Flavour is fairly deep raspberry flesh (a touch like blackcaps) and seeds, rather tart but very dry and mineral, rose hips, dried flowers and stems, light grain, a little lemony lacto. Finish retains persistent dryness and light berries, but also a moderate lactic note that lasts for a full minute after swallowing. Body is light to medium with a soft but effervescent carbonation. The nose on this is bonkers for the depth of raspberry that few similar beers equal, while the flavour is quite different but still rather unique for style. Cool stuff.

BOTTLE 341 ML shared. Rich raspberry aroma, fresh raspberries, seeds, hints of dough in the background. Bright lactic acidity with raspberry undertones. Raspberry seed bitterness. Clean, no yest, not dough. Very good.

(Bottle, 0.341 l, at Bar Bronco 2, 20161013) The beer poured deep red and clear. Its head was small and pink. Aroma had raspberries, coriander and fruitiness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, raspberries, tartness, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste had sweetness, raspberries and bitterness. A decent berry-flavoured wheat beer.

330ml bottle from Denman Liquor Store. Bottled on 06-Jul-2016. Pours a clear raspberry color with a weak rose head and with some flakes (of raspberries?). Aroma is sweet, like a raspberry jam (too sweet though). Tart taste with raspberry notes. Sour raspberry aftertaste. Excellent!

Pours clear, yet deep red. No head. Smell is very intense fruity. Taste is strong and sharp sour, with a very very dry mouthfeel, yet a bomb of fruityness. Talk about an explosive taste ! the beer ain’t balanced by far , as it builds up between extremes that are not extreme in a good way ( too sharp sourness, too dry, probably not that natural as I’d like to think it is ) yet the taste itself aint bad !

On tap @ What’s Brewing 15. Pours hazy red, with a big airy, pink head. Aroma is nicely tart raspberries with lactic, earthy notes, and sweet raspberry candy, as well some funky notes. Medium body, with soft carbonation. Flavour is sour raspberries, with lactic acid and musty bretty wood. As a Berliner Weisse this is just awesome, and rating just to style this would have been pretty close to top notch.
