This framboise article concerns a fruit beer. Framboise is also a French raspberry
eau-de-vie, or clear brandy distilled from fermented fruit.Framboise (from the
French word for
raspberry) or Frambozenbier (
Dutch) is a
Belgian lambic beer that is fermented using raspberries. It is one of many modern fruitbeer types that have been inspired by the more traditional
kriek beer, made using
sour cherries. Framboise is usually served in a small glass that resembles a champagne glass, only shorter. Most framboise beers are quite sweet, though the
Cantillon brewery produces a tart version called Rosé de
Gambrinus that is based on the traditional kriek style. The Liefmans brewery uses
Oud bruin beer instead of lambic to make its high quality framboise beer, resulting in a very different taste. Recently, Framboise has become popular outside of Belgium, and can now be found in pubs and supermarkets all over the world.
