Cloudy somewhat murky medium amber colour, tall loose frothy white head, slowly diminishing, little adhesive, patchy lacing. Aroma sweet malt, rye, orange marmalade, honey, overripe fruit, caramel. Taste medium sweet and bitter, toasted malts, rye, fruity (orange, peach), honey notes, bit yeast. Medium body, oily texture, average carbonation, dry sweetbitter aftertaste, toasted malt, citrus peel, herbal notes. A good rich and nicely layered brew.

Bottle, 0.33l. Aroma of caramel, flowers, yeast, wheat and dried fruit. Pours cloudy bronze color with thick creamy off-white head and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts sweet caramelly, resinous and tart ripe fruity, follows by toasted malt, herbs and dried fruit, mouthfeel is warm and mild spicy, while finish is heavy bitter. Full body, oily texture and lively carbonation in palate. Sweet, but luckily without palm oil...

330ml bottle from Bierhalle Deconinck. Hazed chestnut amber appearance, off-white crown. Fruity malty sweet nose. Plummy, leafy malt loaf tones to this red ale overall.. Smooth on the palate, a touch chewy with a confident Citra bitterness. Comes together well. Nice.

Bottle, huge thanks poech! Murky red body, thick, creamy off white head. BIg, dry aroma, malty, some vague flowery hoppy touches, sweetish caramelly notes, dried fruit, bit woody. Dead? Yeah, pretty much dead. Lean taste, sweetish, well hidden alcohol, dried fruit again, very light phenolic touches, some light light citric touches really, and that's it. almost 10 months old and it shows, eh. Still a drinkable beer, but need to rerate this fresh.

J'ai été déçu par cette Simply Rossa et ce, avant tout par ses arômes très épurés et manquant d'intensité. Cette ambrée jouit cependant d'un bon équilibre et d'un travail sur l'amertume intéressant, soutenu par un houblonnage à cru bien dosé. Compliqué cependant de déterminer à la dégustation la présence de Nelson Sauvin qui est avec le Rakau un des houblons utilisés. Le visuel est sur un bel ambré limpide (EB c de 20) avec une mousse beige de 3 mm. Le nez est peu développé sur le caramel, les céréales, la framboise et le cassis. L'attaque est sur des épices bien présentes (poivre notamment) avec du cassis et des herbes et une amertume bien ciselée avec 50 d'IBU) très épurée. La deuxième bouche est de loin la plus intéressante, sur une bonn3 complexité aromatique même si la rétro est très aqueuse sur une fine amertume. On y retrouve caramel, herbes, épices cassis et mûres. L’arrière-bouche est quant à elle sur une amertume plus brute. Le final est très décevant, très court est astringent. Une seule seconde bouche est insuffisante, mais cela me donne quelques regrets pour une bière possédant un travail sur l'amertume intéressant.

Bottle from Beergium. Murky amber, offwhite head. Fruity, sweet citrusy and malty aroma, floral honey notes. Malty, citrusy flavour, orange, emon, some herbal notes. Quite decent despite a couple of months past bbd.

Dark amber colour, white foam. Sweet, malty with citrusy and caramel notes. Some tropical fruit. Not very refreshing.

Medium to good, dense, foxy cream coloured head, irregular, fed by finely carbonated clear amber beer; end of bottle solid yeast. Roasted caramel, heated raspberries, also the leaves of raspberry bushes, hot cherry coulis, toasted malts. More caramel in the mouth, less specific fruit. Some leafy notes, sweets. Finish is a bit lean. Light to medium bodied, medium to good carbonation, yeastslick. Nose is remarkable, as no fruit is actually added. The rest is maybe a tad to plain. Thanks to Stef!
