3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
12oz bottle from the mighty hoppymeal - thanks, Derek! Dusky red/brown pour with a modest amount of prickly carbonation here. Nose is fairly soft skins/pits of dark cherries, tart but balanced out by the wood. Taste is very funky and astringent, more like Red Poppy than a tripel. Very tasty though!

In short: An oaky dry cherry fruity beer with a farmhouse twist. Very good.
How: Bottle 12oz. Consumed 6 months after receiving if from a few kids who are barely legal age to drink, thanks a lot kids
The look: Clear amber-red body topped by a pinky ring of foam
In long: Nose is moderate cherry, a bit musty/wet basement, barrels of some kind, farmhouse sensation. Taste is clean, refreshing, low-sweetness cherries, dry oak, light presence of tannins, citrusy notes, lemon juice, a tiny bit of funk, medium tartness, light acidity. Smooth carbonation with a juicy body. Finish is pleasantly dry and oaky. Overall I thought this was a rather straightforward refreshing fruit beer, even at 8.5%. Good stuff here. Yet another beer I’d like to drink again and again. I already drink way too much and I have no desire to stop, I’d like to drink even more, I think it’s time for me to join Alcoholics Ambitious.

Shared by emacgee. Pinkish orange. Odd cherry orange lemon funky nose. Taste like cheap cherry pie filling and some lemony notes.
Chemical and pretty bad.

Thanks emacgee for sharing. Pours amber orange with a small white lace. Notes of plastic, lychee, a bit of berry fruitiness, chemicals, diacetyl. Gross.
2 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Pours soft light copper with one finer of off white head. Nose is weird, chemically with some diacetyl . Rancid flavor, rotten cherry. Not my thing.

12 ounce thanks to mikem409. Almost pink lemonade color. Big sour fruit with strong oak finish. Interesting combination. Oak drowns cherries a bit, but adds interesting twist.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Pours a hazy reddy brown colour, not too much in the aroma, a bit of sourness. Great taste, sour, tart and fruity. Taste lingers for a while, great beer.
3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours an opaque rose/amber color with a medium pink head. Aroma has notable sour cherry...slightly boozy...a hint of oaky vanilla. Flavor is dominated by oak...slightly vinous...hint of vanilla...sour cherry is present but overpowered by the oak. Mouthfeel is light and lively...finish is super oaky and dry. They overdid the oak or needed more cherry but not bad.

(Courtoisie de JulienHuxley) Un anneau de mousse flotte sur un liquide rosé. Le nez comporte des cerises légèrement surettes et sucrées avec une petite touche de massepain. Les saveurs sont peu agressives avec des cerises surettes qui rencontrent une levure sauvage édulcorée et de très fines touches de sirop contre la toux. En bouche, le liquide a un corps léger avec une texture gonflée par une bonne effervescence. La finale se fait sur des notes légèrement surettes et timidement douces.
