Founders Rübæus (2013)

I hope so. Not too many good fruit beers around at a decent price point, and Cerise was a total letdown. I mean, I certainly wouldn't mind drinking kriek all summer, but my bank account (and wife) would probably not be happy about it.

 

Dating a girl like that would be good for a guy's self-esteem

 

How do you pronounce this beer, by the way? I've been saying it in my head as "Roo-BAY-iss"

 

Enjoying some Rübæus right now on tap, I would say it's not Raspberry Tart, but it's very refreshing, not too sweet or too tart, and not medicinal like Cherise; this is a great summertime brew!

 

had both this and blushing monk at the philly founders event....this beer was quite excellent, liked blushing monk a hell of a lot more, but if i can't have more blushing monk, i will gladly welcome more rubaues

 

Well I know what I won't be wasting my money on! More for you all

 

He's got Cee Lo Green hands

 

i wish they would make blushing monk a four pack and year round!

 

I think that's a woman holding the bottle....I think..

 

I was thinking more like Rübæus vs VBDL

 

That is one beautiful label.

 

Had Raspberry Tart last weekend and was very disappointed, not much flavor at all, by comparison, I had the Belgian Red just minutes later and loved it.

I also ran across a store selling 2011 Cerise half off. Both my wife and I found it to be a lot better than the '12 Cerise.

 

Crazy, I have had a couple bottle of Raspberry Tart sent to me and have loved every bottle, I haven't found the elusive Belgian Red yet though but I think that Rübæus blows the socks off Cherise comparatively speaking.

 

God, I hope this is better than Blushing Monk. That beer was such a disappointment.

 

Loved Blushing Monk. And the fact that I love raspberries much more than cherries makes this one even more exciting for me.

 

It struck me weird as I love raspberries more than cherries but 3 others agreed with so maybe it was a less than stellar bottle.

 

Respect to ur profile pic

 

I would think closer to Ru as in Paul, Bee as in insect Us as the objective form of we. Unless of course you say encyclopædia as encycloPAYdia, then I don't know what to say : )

 

Sounds interesting. I'll try anything from Founders.
