Bottle. Cherry aroma. Cherry red in colour.Flavour of cherries. Rich beer but again a very good standard fruit beer. What I want from a fruit beer, plenty of flavour from the fruit and rich. Lovely.

Bottled. Deep ruby red colour with small pinkish white head. Aroma is just sweet cherries. Flavour is mainly cherry, cherry pips and mild notes of syrup.
