Bacchus Framboise - Fruit beer

Dionysus is the Greek-Roman god of pleasure and is also known as Bacchus He stands for culinary delights, drink and food in abundance, for fertility and excess In his honor, fantastic feasts were held in ancient Rome, which usually got out of hand in every respect Everyone ate and drank until they were about to faint, took part in wild orgies and illegal gambling and abandoned all reason and composure These so-called bacchanals regularly caused great scandals and certainly contributed to the moral and actual downfall of the Roman Empire Today, we are left with countless images and works of art that are reminiscent of this glorious time And, of course, culinary delights - even if we no longer consume them in megalomaniacal style and quantity

The Bacchus Framboise from Van Honsebrouk is a beer that would have been a perfect match for the pomp and pageantry of a bacchanal The 5.0% fruit beer is brewed with fresh raspberry juice and not only has a fabulous cherry-red color, but also an incomparably summery taste The brew brings a skillful balance of sunny sweetness and fruity acidity to the glass and combines this pure joy with exquisite roasted malts and creamy caramel notes

Excess or not, Van Honsebrouk's Bacchus Framboise is a feast for all the senses!
