| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Aug 12, 2004 Red color, no head. Sour aroma of cherries. Sour flavor of cherries with a sweet finish. Slightly dry mouthfeel, light body. Very enjoyable and refreshing, I like it a lot. Eructoblaster (1510), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Aug 7, 2004 Red body topped with a quick-fading pink bubbly head. Relatively weak cherry aroma typical from underaged beers. Taste is a bit aciditic and maybe oversweetened. Good and long sour/bitter final. I like sour fruitbeers and Berliner but I think that one could gain a lot by aging a little bit more and being served in an appropriate glass at DDC. tiggmtl (4311), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | May 2, 2004 (#400) Sour cherry and a touch of vinegar in the aroma. Very red with thin, white head that diminishes to ring. Initial short burst of sweetness and cherries overwhelmed by one dimensional vinegar sourness. Flavour builds throughout the tasting. Body is light and quite still. Perhaps this one did not benefit from aging? On tap (aged one year). SimonPatrice (312), Montréal, Quebec, Canada
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 21, 2003 Red body, pink head, cherry, wheat and lemon aroma. Nice tartness, lemon notes, cherry pits. The fruit isn't as present as in the rasberry one. Some yeasty hints in the finish. A very good beer. dirtymike (2018), Manchester, New Hampshire, USA

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 30, 2003 Updated: Aug 26, 2005Delectable cherries and subtle wheat are involved in a lovely, soul-mate interplay with an oily lemon juice...Sweet and sour cherries take all the room to display their multi-faceted wonders...Like all of their berliners, this feels ultra-fresh, packed with the life of hundreds of sweet and tart fruit...Sourness is subdued compared to their vibrant Framboise, which is their best berliner weisse I think, but Dieu du Ciel is no doubt one of the best fruit brewers I have encountered...
