Founders Cerise

Brewed by Founders Brewing Company
Style: Fruit Beer
Grand Rapids, Michigan USA

pours out a red color with a pink head. aroma was cherries. flavor was also charries, but not nearly as tart as i expected.

Strawberry soda pink with scant white head. Light carbonation. Very thin, wispy body. Barely any grain or fruit character, weakly whispering whatever. But nothing bad is here.

(bottle) Pours out pink (looks just like pink lemonade) with a medium white head that leaves good lacing on the glass. This turns more red when it’s all in the glass. Smells of macerated cherries with hints of pie crust as well. This becomes even more sweet and pie-like and begins to take on the scent of those canned cherry pie fillings, which isn’t bad. The taste of course has cherry, with an undercurrent of sweetness and an overtone of tart cherry skin that really runs all of the way out to the finish. The finish has just a hint of grain, but it really drops off quickly. The mouthfeel is medium with ample carbonation. Not a bad beer by any means, fairly drinkable, and lacks any undesirable characteristics.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a pinkish-orange...or something. Thin, filmy head. Aroma of cherries and sweet malt. Taste is more tart than sweet, but a little cough syrupy. Has kind of a cherry cobbler finish with a touch of cinnamon. A little heavy on the palate. Enjoyable in small quantities, but gets tiresome.

pours stawberry red. tastes like cherries and seven up with some whipped cream mixed in. okay!

Eh, poured from 12 oz bottle, like a cherry DrPepper, forming small light red foamy head. Aroma of the usual. Flavour was straight up cherry soda. Sheees, an OK beer, not my fave style. NOT for me.....others may appreciate...

A pinkish blonde ale with a thick froathing lacing white head. A rather strong butterscotch covering the cherries in aroma. In mouth, a cherry liqueur with nice cherry skins, a bit buttery and cloying. Lighter than expected. On tap at the Small Bar on Division, May 16 2009.

Bottle courtesy of beerbill. Pours a hazy reddish orange with a one finger light pink head that results in spotty lacing. The nose is bready malt and light cherry. The taste is malt and semi-sweet cherries with a slight sour cherry finish that fades back to sweet cherry. Medium prickly mouthfeel. Nice brew. Thanks Bill!
