Flavour almond, cherry, sugar, fruit,sour, sweet. Nice beer. yngwie (3465), Kristiansand, Norway Dec 5, 2007 Bottle. (trade with papsoe) (drank at cellar temperature) Pours with a clear, deep red body and a small, reddish-white head. The aroma is cherry-ish with a evident touch of glühwein, cloves and almonds as well. The flavor is more on the sweet side, but there’s also a nice sourness and a spicyness that is subdued compared to in the aroma. Some almond as well. There’s dried fruits, mostly raisins I think, as well in both aroma and flavor. Medium body, a bit sticky in the mouth, but at least this one has a sourness to balance it slightly. Slightly sour finish with sweetness, and a little spicyness as well. Would like to try it heated as well, so I’ll have to look for another bottles I guess. A nice fruitbeer. (071205) Kinz (1897), Glen Allen, Virginia, USA Nov 26, 2007 Richmond "industry" gathering. Medium red appearance. Aromas of cherry and spice. Flavor was, well, cherry and spice. Not much else to say here. Good though. Ungstrup (11075), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 15, 2007 Bottled. A deep red beer with a pink head. The aroma is sweet with notes of almond and cherries - and so is the flavor combined with notes of pebernødder. Nice.
