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.

Pours amber with an off-white head. Notes of cherry, sweet tarts, sour & sweet, lightly acidic candy. Full bodied, sweet and stikcy with lush carbonation.

Hint of cherry with a smooth taste that ends with a tart kick to it, liked it.

750 ml bottle to ring in 2010. Pours a gorgeous lightly hazy red with brown tint and a small white froth. Oh my aroma is so beautifully cherry with amazing wheat, just makes me feel like I am in nature. So sweet and lightly tart, so damn fresh. Flavor starts cherry, sweet but then getting tart enough to make my cheeks get a little pucker. Really nice tartness, perfect for the style, makes me dream of fruit fields. So refreshing and still sweet enough to make it so. The cherry flavors continue through the swallow and linger perfectly. Perfect medium body that is exactly what I want for the style with a tingling fizzy carbonation. Mmmmmm I could drink this all day, especially in warmer weather

Bottle was a gift. Pours a deep red with a full white head. Wow, what cherry aroma and a flavor to match. Tart Montmorency cherries dominate; it doesn’t even taste like a beer. Awesome.

Good fruit ale but no way a 5 pointer. It’s too sweet. too cherry and too weak. I paid an arm and a leg for this and I was sorely disappointed. My wife tried it and said I should add Coke to it and make a Cherry Coke.

Bottle from Cavie. Pours a pretty Kool-Aid red with a slightly pink head. Smells like a Hall’s sore throat candy with a Fruit Roll-up. Oh, shit. It’s way too tart. The cherry is extremely strong. It’s great, but holy hell, it’s making my stomach rumble.

Bottle with big thanks to bonk0076. Thanks man, been lookin forward to this one for quite awhile. Pretty red pour that turns orange towards the edges. Smells of cherry cough syrup. Large fruit and cherry smell. Very potent. Taste has a big cherry taste with a slight tartness towards the front. Has a jolly rancher flavor also. Very fruity and intense.

Bottle from Cavie. Immediately I am hit with an aroma of cherry cough syrup. The color is a nice dark red with a light pink head. The taste is not so heavy on the cough syrup, but still a bit bitter.

Strong aroma of sour cherries and apples. Murky ochre, thin pink head, some lacing. Fabulously sweet and tart flavor of cherries, no hops or malt detected. Medium body, a bit fuzzy in the back of the throat. Absolutely delicious, but not very complex or beery.
