May 23, 2009 Pours a deep fuchsia with a light rose head. The aroma is not very complex, just tart cherries and berries. Tastes of sour black cherries with a dry finish. I like.

May 22, 2009 Best before 07-07-07, so maybe 4 or 5 years old.. Pours pretty un-lively, barely any lacing with a deep red color. A little bit of junk at the end of the pour. First hazy but gets darker to make visibility difficult. Aroma is very cherry pit with musky and more cherry juice. A bit of oak coming through with a bit of leafiness. taste has a bit of musky sourness but mostly more cherry and light oak. Its a bit sweeter for the style. It evaporates pretty fast on the palate. Decent stuff, aged fine enough.
12oz bottle, Bell’s tulip glass.

May 19, 2009 25 cl bottle. Sour cherry aroma, caramel and citrus. Very nice. Rich cherry and caramel flavor, lots of citrus, very sour. Amazingly fruity. Complex, though with something medicinal as well. Yet the nice malty caramel with underlying sweetness balances the sour fruit. Blood red color. High carbonation. Very nice.

May 18, 2009 Dark ruby red. Sweet cherry nose. Some wood and yeast. Other dark fruits apparent. Flavor is malty and loads of cherry sweetness. Bitter tart unripe cherries and lactic acid. Very sweet but does not linger. finishes dry. I’m a fan.

May 3, 2009 Poured into a tulip
deep crayola red body with a nice pink head
smelled of fruits and red wine
tasted slightly like calistoga sparking juice. the sweetness cloyed the yeast and the funk was just intermittent.
sweet, but the high carbonation helped it from sticking to the tongue.
overall not bad.
