MBison (548) - Southern Highlands, AUSTRALIA - MAR 2, 2008
Bottle (375ml). Poured blood red with a good size pink head which was mostly lasting. Aroma was of glazed cherries, strawberries, strawberry topping and some cherry sherbet. Flavor was of tart cherries with a light bitterness, some sweet raspberries and cherry sherbet. Light to medium bodied with spritzy carbonation, syrupy texture and a ok finish.

What a coinsidance. I’ve bought that beer on the same day without any discussion with ogreface. Let’s taste it! Beautiful ruby color with a nice delicate pink head. The aroma is a little sour cherry and a little barnyard. In the taste dominates the sour cherry flavour with a good&mild tartness and acidity. Nice sour afertaste. That beer was a good surprise for me(from a mass producer InBev)...

Egy különleges lambic,különleges alkalmakra.Néha megkívánom és olyankor bizony jólesik bele kortyolni ebbe a gyümölcsös italba.Az illatában,ízében végig dominál a meggy,az utóízben pedig feltűnik a komló is.Kellemes de mindennapi italnak nem tudnám elképzelni.

I don’t mind fruit beers, especially those that have been brewed specifically as one as opposed to has fruit added to mask a crap beer. A good fruit beer must in essence be a good base beer, before any fruit is added. Cherries works for me and this would be my first choice of fruit beers.

SHIG (2530) - Osan, SOUTH KOREA - JAN 10, 2008
Bottle: Poured a ruby red with pink color head. The aroma is a tart cherry. The taste is sour cherry with a slight acidic touch to the finish. Watery compaired to other fruit krieks.

375 mL bottle bought in Fes, Morocco, on Christmas Eve. A bit sweet, but counteracted by tart cherry flavour. I liked it, though I would be unlikely to drink more than two at a sitting or more than every three days. Aroma less obviously synthetic than the taste, very pleasant. Would definitely buy again. Just not frequently.
