Aroma of cherries. Nice, deep, ruby red appearance. Flavor is good -- again of cherries, almost artificial, and bitter in the back-end. Some sourness with a lactic acidity just undercover. Fine palate for a lambic. Spritzy.

Pours a very dark red almost purple color, big pink head. Flavor wasn’t as sour as some of the other flavors, and thought this tasted like a cherry cough drop.

Clear red color with okay head. Synthetic aroma and taste of cherry. I don’t like it but its the best beer the kids ever tasted (age 2 and 4)!!

This was pretty tasty. Beautiful pour, deep red with just the right amount of cloudiness for it to catch light in beautiful ways that show the depth of the drink. Head could have been a little prettier though. I didn’t get much aroma from it, what was there was cherry. Taste is sweet and tart cherry with a number of flavours underneath it that are very subtle, I think I could taste some wheat, some yeast pungence. It’s smooth, carbonated just right for a drink of this nature, and had a fairly substantial feel in my mouth, without being too syrupy. Very refreshing.

Bottle at Beer Sellar. Poured reddish brown with a moderate frothy head that was mostly diminishing and produced fair lacing. Heavy cherry aroma. Light to medium body with fizzy carbonation. Full cherry flavor with a small sour finish. Blended with a double chocolate stout to make a cherry chocolate soda.

(Bottle from <A HREF=http://www.ratebeer.com/Place/maine/portland/ target=blank>Downeast Beverage Co.) Murky reddish-brown pour. Fizzy pink head. Strong aroma of sour cherries. Lots of sloppy, foamy lacing. Very carbonated, so has a bubbly mouthfeel. Tastes of malt and cherries with a nicely sourish finish. Is alot like drinking an alcoholic black cherry soda, but I didn’t find it overly sweet. Actually quite tasty. Sure beats a crappy wine cooler.

Tried this from a 25 cl bottle at Pannrummet in Gothenburg, Sweden. Deep red clor and a fresh pink head. Some acid but moslty "bitter almond" scent. Taste also a mix of acid and bitter almonds. After taste is a bit fruity, like you had some non-alcoholic lemonade.
