Commercial Description:
Belgian Red is a tapestry of flavor. This beer is brewed with whole Montmorency Cherries, Wisconsin farmed wheat and Belgian roasted barleys, lagered in oak tanks and balanced by Hallertau hops we aged in our brewery one full year. Over a pound of Door County Cherries in every bottle makes this beer uniquely “Wisconsin.” So unique, in fact, that we applied for a patent. Expect this beer to be ruby red, with a medium body that is highly carbonated and intense with cherry flavor and bouquet.

Received this as a bonus, huge thans goes out to Beachbum1975! Pours a winered color with a frothy white head. Looks inviting as hell! Aroma, one word: Cherrypie! but there is some malt,sugar and marzipan in there aswell. And of course pure cherry. Taste is filled with cherries/cherrypie along with some almost overwhelming sweet notes. Some malt,spices, marzipan and cinnamon can be felt. Some acidity but not much. Really a great dessertbeer!

Pours a strawberry/ maraschino cherry red with a frothy white head with some awesome champagne like bubbles. Smells like bubbalicious gum, cherry syrup, and cake batter. Tastes like a cherry slurpee and heaven. I love this beer. Thanks to Dasilky1 for sharing this bottle and to arjoseph for introducing me to it.

[9/5/08] Bottle sample during LCRBM at Kulminator in Antwerp. Dark murky red-brown. Aroma of sweet cherries, sugar and some marzipan notes. Sweet cherries flavor with oak, some malt, caramel, other dark fruits notes and some candies. Medium to full body. Silky.

LCRBM 2009. The bottle looks simple, but good. The beer in the glass is red-brown, modest turbid, small head. Chewing-gum aroma. Starts very sweet and fruity like melon. Finish modest sourish-bitter, still very fruity. Very sweet aftertaste. Unusual, but good!

Having poured this @ GABF (and thusly drank mass quantities in 1oz intervals) - was excited to sit and sip on a whole bottle. Really outstanding nose of ripe red cherries, mascarpone cheese and a breadiness that really ties it together nicely. Flavor is initially a blast of cherry pie, mellowed by the wheaty/bready yeasts and a wood/earth background that is just superbly integrated. As it warms, the sweetness intensifies a bit and overtakes the ’beer’ element more, but this is a wonderful brew.

@ LCRBM 2009. A hazy orange/amber colored beer, with a beige little pink head. The aroma is very fruity. A lot of cherries cold morellen (Dutch). Very sweet with hints of sour. The taste is sweet, a lot of cherries, it’s stickey. In the back notes of sour. The aftertaste is very sweet.

Red beer with a small pink head. Candy like aroma. Doesn’t smell natural. Flavor starts lightly sweet but ends with a mild sourness. Some fizzy experience on the tongue. Wood flavors noticeble.

Very cherrylike, sour and sweet. Very very enjoyable! Some people at the tasting suggested that it was chemical, but I think you really taste the fresh fruits in this.
