A hard drink to judge. For a fruit beer it is one of the best. Cherry flavor is termemdous. If you are not a beer lover (what?) then this is a great alternative. However it is very sweet and half of a drink is enough for me.

Heavy malty and fruthy aroma, cherry. Huge, frothy, pink head. Good lacing. Fully lasting longevity. Clear, pink body. Heavy sweet and bitter initial flavor, with a long sour finish duration. Light to medium, watery palate.

Red with a big fluffy pink head. Spicey fruit aroma. Sour with cherry tartness. Musty wood/earthy background. Has good qualities that are upstaged by too much sugar.

cherry, cheese aroma; quiet yet very fizzy mouthfeel; sweet, slightly tart; big, tightly beaded head; a filling liquid cherry bread! pretty strong, but not much to this...

Corked bottle. Red and foamy with sweet cherry aroma. There is some sour notes in the palate, but the main feature is sugar and fruitness. An average mass-produced lambic.

Got this can across the way from the train station in Schaerbeek, Brussels, Belgium yesterday. Kinda had high hopes for this especially after I poured and took a whif. Looks great with a big pink foamy, frothy, textured head and loads of lace. Aroma was apparent immediately upon opening the can of pie cherries. Closer sniff gave up some floral qualities too. Flavor was not so good; body either. Taste was very shallow; only of the aroma and barely any beer. Body was super thin. Tawdry. Somebody’s trying to get by on the cheap. I call you out sir! Think I’m being a little over kind in the ratings actually.

0.375 l bottle. Pours dark clear red body with bigger medium head. Aroma of black cherry and some hops. Bit vinegar, too. Flavor still with the black cherry, sourish but not too much lambic present, although more "looking like beer" than other fruit lambic I’ve recently tried. High carbonation on the palate of course. Finish a bit sour. Not bad generally.
