thewolf (8245) - Kolding, DENMARK - MAY 11, 2007
Bottle. Clear red with a fine creamy pink head. Aroma has loads of cherries in a bubblegum kind of way. Oily mouthfeel. Slightly sour with a woodyness adding to the cherries. Ends a touch too quickly.

Jukkabro (3457) - Tampere, FINLAND - MAY 5, 2007
Dark red colored, vanishing light red head. Aroma is only cherries with sour bubblegum, too sweet for my taste. Thin to medium bodied. Flavor does not differ from aroma so much: too much cherries with bubblegum and some wooden tones, somehow watery and round ending.

GRM (2050) - Aylmer, Quebec, CANADA - APR 27, 2007
Draught, served in its glass but way too cold, drank at Chambar, savoured on February 8 2007; eye: burgundy, a thin layer of beige head, nice lacing, no effervescence; nose: cherry concentrate, outdated malt, vinous, acidic, I should not have gone with the retro-nasal approach as the result was outdated malt and way, way, way too much sweet; mouth: surprisingly creamy, nice hint of acidity, a bit of caramel all over the place, finale in cherry with a bit of a sweet side to it, after the finale, sweetness, astringency, acidity and a bit of bitterness and even of acridity, medium body, too sweet, creamy and a bit grainy texture, quite acidic; overall: quite special but not too often FRANÇAIS En fût, servit dans son verre, servit bien trop froide, bue chez Chambar, savourée le 8 février 2007; oeil : bourgogne, petite couche de mousse beige, belle dentelle, claire, pas d’effervescence; nez : concentré de cerise, malt passé date, vineux, acidité, j’aurais pas dû y aller dans la rétro-olfaction car le résultat est un malt passé date et un écoeurement dans le sucré; bouche : curieusement crémeuse, belle pointe d’acidité, un peu de caramel au travers de tout ça, finale en cerise avec un petit côté sucré, après la finale on parle d’un mélange de sucré, astringence, acidité et un peu d’amertume et même d’âcreté, corps moyen, toquant, texture crémeuse et très légèrement granuleuse, assez acide; en résumé : vraiment spécial mais pas trop souvent
