Flemish wild ale aged in our French Calvados foedre with raw apple cider for 12 months then refermented on an ample bed of Michigan raspberries which lend a Hyacinth hue reminiscent of the blush of Reinette apple skins and the fine, auburn coats of majestic forest foxes. The aroma is a crocheted burst of vibrant, almost candy-like raspberry intertwined with deeper notes of baking spice and apple strudel. A quick dash of tartness is followed immediately by a rumbling baritone chord of stewed raspberry jam and baked apples leaving one with a sense of wanderlust and excitement for what spring will brings us

I absolutely love the original, one of the most underrated ale imho, get 4 packs consistently when available. So an addition of raspberry had me intrigued. The good news: the raspberry does take away from the pear nuances but other than that I found it to be very nice addition, especially with the calvados barrels, sneaky jammy before the artistically wild tones finish. Raspberry and apple dominate the nose in a refined yet wild way. Clear amber brown body, beige cap. Feel is tart but barely acidic at all, so smooth with a fuller body yet light, quenching. Late spring this would be ideal
