I’m more skeptical of this one. Pours murky copper with almost no head. Aroma is kind of faint. raspberries and cherries. not impressive. flavor is pretty tart. fruity but confused. The competing flavors of cherry, raspberry, and whatever passion fruit is make an overall artificial candy fruit taste. You can kind of taste the underlying belgian flavor. yeah, i’m gonna go with "confused" as the best descriptor for this beer. I’d rather it just be an overpowered fruit beer, or a normal belgian strong. The good news is that the 9.5% is well hidden. Again, $9.50 for this is totally absurd. Whereas the pilzilla tasted really good, this redeems itself by having a lot of alcohol.

22 oz bottle, Wegmans State College. Pours a clear pinkish tinged copper body with a large frothy white head. Tons of vigorous carbonation. The nose is a mix of cherry, caramel, light raspberry, tropical fruits and an almost wheat like note. The flavor is on the sweet side with sort of a non-descript fruitiness, but it’s more cherry than anything. Some thin caramel and a bit of a lingering chemical taste on the finish. Finishes rather thin and quick. Medium bodied, a little sticky up front, but thinner on the finish. Lots of fizzy spritzy carbonation. Pretty boring overall and not especially natural tasting.

An interesting beer if nothing else. I smells and tastes a beer brewed with Belgian Yeast, but the fruit is subtlely in every part of the beer. I smelled the fruit, tasted the fruit, and the finish left the fruit in my mouth. Maybe the passion fruit over the cherries and rasberries. So did I like it? Answer is, I am not sure. I certainly was entertained by the beer, and will get it again. So that was fun, but I would get it again more out of curiosity then infatuation. Is that Love, sounds more like Voodoo?

Thanks Dan from PA. Appearance: Pours an amber gold with a fluffy white head that eventually subsides to nothing. The body is cloudy with only a few visible rising bubbles. Aroma: Sweet and sour cherries, possibly some brown sugar as well. Taste: Sweet and sour cherries, followed by some metallic and bitter hops. Also has a lot Belgian Tripel yeast qualities in the finish. To summarize, it starts sweet and sour and ends dirty and earthy. Mouthfeel: Medium bodied and fizzy. Overall: An interesting beer. I don’t think I’ve ever had one like it. I think I need to try more, or never try it again to appreciate it.

Bottle… Hazy yellow ale with a small, fizzy, white head. Lengthy, tight retention. The aroma is of canned corn, biscuit, lots of berries and tropical fruit. Medium to full-bodied, a touch oily and very fizzy. Sweet, corny flavor. Finishes sweet and grainy. Bottle courtesy of dmschefke!

Amber/orange color with thin head. Fruit aroma, smells of peach and not so much of raspberry, cherry or passion fruit. Tart and acidic, dry flavor but with a slight medicinal finish. As this warms a bit more of the fruit sweetness on the back of the tongue becomes apparent. Alcohol is well hidden. Interesting.

Sampled from a 22 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy faint pink-orange-amber color with a medium sized pink-white head. The aroma was dryish, tart and fruity with notes of cherry and berry. The flavor was dryish, tarty and fruity with notes of cherry, berry and definite passionfruity. Throughout the beer was dryish, must and faintly spicy with a meidum length fruit and mustiness. Interesting.

Bottle acquired from goldtwins...THANKS LARRY!!! Not a bad little beer here...murky golden orange pour with a solid ivory head that left a bit of lacing. Nose is filled with raspberries, cherry skin, and cotton-candy. Flavor is quite sweet but not at all cloying and the alcohol is invisible. Raspberry, yeast, and some hops in the flavor. Medium mouthfeel. Pretty good.
