[Bottled at East End Brewery, Quarry Bay, Hong Kong] Pale amber, near no head. Extremely obvious aroma of candy and passion fruit jam. Extremely sweet. It has insufficient malt to make a statement that this is really beer and not soda pop. Besides the sweetness it’s not unpleasant, but very simplistic and really no more than lemonade.

Bottle, beerpassion 2006. Very sweet raspberry lambic, but also a bit sour, very (artificial) fruity. Better than the Kriek Max, but still way too sweet.

Clear golden beer; yellowish, fine & dense head, leaving some lace. Vanilla aroma through a gassy nose, further pale malts, vaguely spicey. Quite bitterish, hops at first - but not very noble ones, turning flat & metallic. Ends dull sweet, even if dryish. Slightly burning MF, bit slimy sensation. Very average pilsner.

375ml bottle from Sainsbury. Blood red with pink head. Even before I take a taste of this, I know that this is going to be too sweet for me, and it is. Sweet cherries dominate. Some sourness on finish, but the rest is just too much. Like drinking cherry syrup.

(Bottle 25 cl) Hazy orangey golden with floating impurities. Small, white and somewhat rough head. Fresh aroma with a lightly fruity tartness. Light-bodied with lovely fresh fruit accents and a sweetness balanced by the light sourness from the Lambic. Rather pleasant fruit beer that would work perfectly as an aperitif. 110206

Bottled (BB 03/2005, so this is vintage bottle :))
Deep red, small reddish head, some lace. Aroma of rasberries, quite ok not too artifical. Fresh, sweetish fresh rasberry flavor, some acidity in the finish. Suprisingly good, fresh, not artifical.
