Color dark amber, with beautiful creamy foam. The aroma of fruit is a delight.The full body and the taste of fruit oppose a sour end.

Sour cherry taste. Nice to give it a try but not for regular drinking in my case. Also a very small bottle.

25cl bottle poured into a tulip glass. Deep red color with about one finger off-white head. Aroma is a mix between cherry and red wine. Sour. Tastes like grape soda and red wine. A good amount of carbonation. Not bad but definitely not my thing.

The bottle looks not spectacular, but okay. The beer in the glass dark, almost black. Starts very fruity like cherry and plums. Nice warm maltiness. Finish more and more sourish. Well balanced and really good!

Pours a dark red color with a tan color head. Aromas are very strong, smells a little like an old wine, you can feel the fruits and the oak. Flavors are again strong on the fruity oak, with old grapes and some berries. It has a dry and sour finish in mouth, some sweetness and with little carbonation. It is a quite light beer but with lots of strong fruity taste.

Bottle. Pours dark reddish brown with a beige head that quickly shrinks to a ring around the top. Aroma is of berries, yeast, sour apple with subtler notes of toffee and malt. Flavour is, like the aroma, pleasantly sour with cherry, raspberry, blueberry, blackberry, toffee, citric acid and apple. Medium bodied with the initial mouthfilling sourness giving way to sweetness at the end and a light, almost slick, mouthfeel. Well balanced, this a very good sour ale.
