Bottle: Pours bloody red with a pink head. Lots of sweet cherry in both nose & taste. Sugary, syrupy & somehow one dimensional but still quite drinkable! OK

25 cl bottle w/ FatPhil. Dark-red, almost bloody body with a pale pink head. A bit vanilla, sweet cherry on the nose. Taste ok, cherry, very foamy texture but with an unfortunate finish of Acesulphane K which destroys the otherwise fine beer.

25 cL bottle. Pours clear and deep golden imperial red to towards purple, lacing pink head. Dense cherry and mild almond aroma. Flavour is sweet, light citric and solid cherry fruity with both a little bite and mild almond note. Acidic to citric cherry lingering flavour into the finish. I honestly like this one, may be artificial but in a good way.

Bouteille en aluminium de 250 ml achetée chez La Barik (Trois-Rivières, QC). Arôme: Odeur de poudre à jus aux cerises avec une pointe sûrette. Apparence: La couleur est rouge vin avec une aible densité de bulle. Présence d’un moyen col crémeux rosâtre avec une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût de cerise sucrée avec une pointe sûrette. Courte durée de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une texture huileuse. Faible effervescence en bouche. Présence de cerise en arrière goût. (Rating #1753)

Bottle. Nice head with good duration. Color is clear ruby. Aroma and taste are rich with cherry. A bit artificial, but still very good and refreshing.

250ml bottle (BelgianShop)
Deep red, healthy tight pink head. Rich dark cherry aroma, slightly sweet but not excessively so. However, in the mouth it’s a bit sweeter, but also quite thick, so not like a fizzy soda. Sourness cuts through the sweetness a bit too, but can’t dominate given the strong black cherry throughout the whole taste. Could do with less sugar - at 3.5% it’s placed as a thirst quencher, yet the sugars will dry you up and leave you thirsty.
Rerate: parcatically identical.

Bottle. Dark red brown with a small head. Aromas are dark cherries with decent sourness. Like cherrydrop sweets. Flavours are sweet and sour cherry with addictive sourness. Sweet and syrupy towards the finish with resinous tartness. Simple but tasty.

Bouteille métallique 250ml. De couleur rouge foncée et claire. Nez fruité aux petites notes sûres (bonbons aux cerises) ainsi que quelques notes herbeuses. Mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen-élevé et une texture aqueuse et sirupeuse fruitée. Goût fruité assez sucré légèrement sûr (sirop de cerises artificielles) dès l’entrée en bouche et qui reste présent et dominant durant toute la gorgée jusqu’en où l’on retrouve une faible aigreur fruitée ainsi que de faibles notes herbeuses. Post-goût moyen-court, légèrement aigre de fruits (cerises) avec la sensation sucrée toujours présente.
