| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 16, 2009 Bottle thanks to an american couple that shared them in the rake. Alround rating: Very bretty, almonds, morello cherry, almond stones, massivly yeasty. Its easy enough drinking for the %, but theres no red tinge even to show that cherries have been added which makes me a bit dubious. jcwattsrugger (5550), Florida and, New Jersey, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 15, 2009 Bottle… Pours straw-colored (nearly albino) and cloudy. Acidic, funky aroma consists of leather, barnyard, sour cherries and horse blanket. Medium-bodied and watery with relaxed carbonation. The flavor is tart and mostly of aged cheese and sour cherries alongside stale bitterness. Nice balance. Finishes watery, coare and dry. Kudos to dchmela for sharing the bottle with the Orlando gang!

Smells of up front intense tartness, cherry pits, oaky. Tastes sour and funky with a dry oaky finish. JoeMcPhee (5010), Jackson Heights, New York, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 27, 2009 Thanks to puzzl for sharing this one with me. Pale golden pour with a thin white head. The nose is amazing. Bright funky nose, light cherry skins and a touch of lemony tartness as well. Fairly lactic with a lot of fruity notes. The flavour is quite strange though. It’s got a weird cardboardy maltiness in the middle of the palate that is fairly distracting. The finish is quite astringent as well with a grainy huskiness that clashes with the lighter fruitiness. Much less tart than the nose would have suggested. It’s not bad, but it’s definitely got some weirdness going on in here. ¾ (4999), Colorado, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 13, 2009 375ml bottle. Mobile rating. Hazed pink grapefruit colored body, soft and cloudy. Soft lactic nose, creamed cherries and peaches slightly sweet. Tangerine, a little spoiled veggies. Creamy rich body, frothy and full, explosive but fine carbonation and acidity. Soft mild unripe lime and unripe peaches. Ughsmash (4054), Waukesha, Wisconsin, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 28, 2009 Thanks to Andy for opening this! Poured hazy pinkish-golden with a short cap of white head. The aroma was sour with cherry and almost kiwi notes upfront over a paler base.. well-balanced, but seemingly a bit ripe. The flavor found sour wheaty and lemony notes, again over a pale base.. a tart dusting of cherries washed over the edges.. finished fairly acidic and sharp. Medium-bodied and moderate-highly sour on the palate.. tasty, but a bit young. Rciesla (3750), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 1, 2009 Bottle poured by Scott at EBF, thanks to Paul for taking the time and uploading these brews. Pours a golden amber body with a light pink head. Hints of sour cherries, some sour tart cherry juice, a bit thin and woody, the body itself is very light. Overall something about the aroma was astringent and chemical-like.
