Commercial Description:
A very intense Belgian style sour cherry beer. Packed with whole tart cherries for a HUGE mouth-filling flavor. This is NOT a typical ’flavored’ beer, rather, the fruit is used in such a way to create a traditional albeit unique beverage.

Light hazy deep reddish colour with a pinkish head. Cherry fruity aroma with notes of marzipan and almonds and vague hints of yeast. Sweet and tart cherry fruity flavor with a light dry and yeasty finish.

Handbottles provided by mj and footbalm. Thanks to the both of you. Muddy red, pinkish head. Cherries up front seem very subdues and delicate, not sour or tart. Flavor much the same, light sour twinge up front, but fades to nothing rather quickly. Mouthfeel rather thin. Not overly impressed.

50 cL bottle hand bottled, thanks to sk8viking. Pours golden red with a lacing white head. Great slight sulphorish and fruity aroma. Lovely slight dark flavour with a mild fruityness on top. Extremely wellbalanced.

Bottle. [Courtesy of Sk8viking, quality tasting @ Papsoe] Huge beige head that really lasted. Cloudy amber color. Good display of lacework. Aroma of flowers, grapefruit, citrus, cherry. Heavy fruity notes that almost feels like a good Port Wine. Underlying prune and marzipan. Full bodied with an average carbonation. Moderated sweet flavor with light acidic. Fruity sweet and marzipan like finish. Very nice fruit beer. 28-09-2007

Hand bottle from trade with Miver. Pours a hazy muddy reddich color with a smalll off white head. Aroma of cherries, hops and dough. Taste is like eating a cherry pie. Semi sweet and tart at the same time. Nicely mellow and well balanced. Reminds me slightly of NG Enigma in the way the flavor unfolds as it warms. Nice easily enjoyed brew.

Bottle from Zathrus13 I believe. Pours a light cherry red but boy does this thing smell fine. There are beers that you open, pour into a glass and drink. This is a brew that can be enjoyed in many a way. looks very cool but gosh, the nose was very nice as the cherry was not sweet and sickly. Very tasty as well.
