Grimbergen Cuvée Réserve Framboise

◎ Aussehen

A deep burgundy-red ale with excellent color saturation, showing fine clarity beneath a pinkish head that sits with moderate persistence. The carbonation is visible as fine, steady bubbles that support the foam structure, creating a delicate Schaumkleiden along the glass.

◌ Aroma

The nose is dominated by bright red fruit—raspberry in particular—with a supporting note of elderberry that adds depth and a subtle jammy quality. Behind the fruit emerges a spicy, peppery character from the abbey house yeast, creating an aromatic balance between sweetness and gentle spice.

◐ Geschmack

The palate opens with rich, tart raspberry that carries good intensity throughout the mid-palate, balanced against underlying sweetness from residual sugars and malt. A light bitterness surfaces to prevent cloying, while the fine carbonation provides a crisp, refreshing mouthfeel that enhances the fruit-forward character.

◑ Abgang

The finish is clean and moderately long, with red fruit and a subtle acidity lingering on the palate. The aftertaste leaves behind a pleasant tartness without astringency, inviting another sip.

Serviertemperatur 6–9°C für das beste Geschmacks- und Aromaprofil.
