GABF’08. Labeled just Frambozen at the fest, very different than the previous years ratings. Pours beautifully with a hazy red color. Aroma is all fresh raspberry with that fresh sourness from the raspberries. has a lively taste with a light sour bite behind that. Some faint earthiness back there as well.

GABF’08. Oh horrid is the only way to describe this. Aroma is all buttery, burnt, toast, straight up. Its got some vomit characteristics. Ugh. Sourness in the flavor making up somewhat for the nasty stuff. But I had to try not to breathe in until I got a sip into my mouth.

12oz Bottle pours out a nice black with a little red topped with a tan head. A very nice aroma of double black coffee and some sweetness. Tast of the chocolate and coffee. A nice roast malt tast aswell. A very good brew.

Bottle. Hop is detectable a foot from the pour. Citrus hop to me. Hazy amber copper color with a fine, frothy off-white head that leaves lace, and it sticks around. As the glass approaches the nose the hop seems floral. Thin body. The first hop seems piny, then after a bit it seems floral. I only really noticed malt in the finish at first (maybe that’s why it’s thin; low malt). Repeated tastes establish malt following the initial hop. Maybe there’s some stone fruit tucked in with the malt, but so is there fruity hop here? And where did the citrus and pine go? In the finish the hop seems to come on strongly floral. Realy a nice product. Good representative of the style.
