Lubiere (3410), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Dec 19, 2005 Yellowish beer with a reddish glow and light white head. Light cranberry and sour cherries in aroma. Tart sour cranberries and light sugars in mouth, unbalanced. Light alcohol warmth. Watery and bland. April 2005. destroye7 (264), Melbourne, Australia Oct 31, 2005 Taste too much like maple sirup. I was expecting a cranberry beer. Never found the cranberries. I focused on the maple, it was tasting like an old maple syrup. muzzlehatch (4429), Burlington, USA Jun 24, 2005 500 ml bottle, from Metro Joannette. Slow-dying moderate head leaves traces of fine lacing above a foggy, pink-tinged light amber body...cranberries, lavender, and citrus form the light aroma...body is pretty much moderately sour, acidic cranberry juice-seltzer, with a bit of malt but not enough to give it any real depth or interest...dryish, cottony finish. I didn’t expect that much, and I didn’t get that much. CapFlu (3353), Victoria, British Columbia, Canada May 22, 2005 (500ml bottles) Purchased at Joannette in Verdun, QC. Pours a frothy, medium white head with an orange body. Nose of oranges, tonic water and sour berries. Flavour is quite maple - not too much sweetness had been detected in the nose. Fruit and a tartedness of artificial maple - like that of supermarket maple cookies. Not bad but an acquired taste... MartinT (4458), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Apr 2, 2005 The Lure:<br />Pristine, thick and lingering head and lacing over tart cranberry spiciness. Simply straightforward.<br />
<br />
The Festivities:<br />Tart cranberries and orange zest aplenty amidst a watery feel. Dry, earthy yeast powder sadly floats about and dissociates the fruity flavors. Medium sweetness and strong carbonation both remain in the realm of drinkability.<br />
<br />
Transcendence:<br />A little girl’s bedroom isn’t that cute, unless it’s your daughter of course.
