Red grapefruit color with no real head. nice sweet balanced flavor of grapefruit and maybe honey. Smell is big bubble gum. Ruby red grapefruit through and through. One of the best Fruit beers I’ve had - not normally a style I like at all and this one was really enjoyable. Miketd rocks! yespr (12407), Copenhagen O, Denmark

Pours an attractive bright cranberry color with a small pinkish white head. Smell is very lightly funky, but more emphasis on a woodsy tart cherry aroma. Taste is quite nice with the obvious sour cherry flavors, tart pink grapefruit and almost a pink bubblegum like quality about it as well, at times. Nicely tart, but not overly dry either, and pretty well balanced. Bitter, tart, grapefruity and cherry flavors made this very nice and drinkable. ekstedt (2447), Göteborg, Sweden

Hazy ruby with a pink head, very beautiful to watch. Cidery aroma with some grapefruit and wood, and a light hint of fresh cherries. Medium bodied, dry with a firm acidity.

Strong aroma of sour cherries. Flavor was sour,sour cherries with a hit of "horseblanket" (or whatever you call that lambic funk) that puckered my face in the end. I’m still a lambic babe, but this wasn’t half bad. joebrew (608), Farewell Minny; Hello Puyallup, Washington, USA

A nice aromatic tart cherry nose with a good kick of earth barnyard funk. Nice tart cherry and green apple on the palate that finishes with a nice earthy punch. pivnizub (5086), Bochum, Porúří, Germany
