Aug 31, 2008 Bottle. I think I’m rating the right beer? It’s sweet but not really a sugar bomb? It might be an old bottle? Nearly clear amber sort of color? That doesn’t sound like either beer...all very weird. In any case, Aroma of oak and vaguely fruity sugars, a bit acetic. Flavor more of the same with some cherry creeping in toward the end. Weak mouthfeel. Not bad otherwise, although lacking a defining character.

Aug 26, 2008 Cherry red with little to no head. Aroma is overwhelmingly cherry syrup, almost like a kid’s cough syrup. Taste is very sweet of cherry syrup, with none of the lovely sourness of better krieks to balance it out. Definitely on the lower-end of the kriek spectrum.

Aug 22, 2008 0.25l bottle. Pours a red-brown colour with a foamy, pink head. Aroma is very sour and sweet. Taste is quite sweet with notes of sourness. Definitely quite different.

Aug 13, 2008 [1551-20080727] 250mL bottle. Jolly Rancher cherry aroma. Murky, bright dark red body with a quick light pink foam. Sweet cherry candy flavour. Light-medium body is bubbly. Nice beverage, not very beer-like.

Jul 31, 2008 2008-07-27. Lightly hazy ruby red body with a smallish pink head. (3+) Sweet cherry candy aroma. (6+) Similar cherry character up front in the flavour, sweet cherry, candyish, tart-sour notes in the finish are brief. Average palate. Decent enough as a sweet drink I suppose, but pretty poor as a lambic. Bottle from the LCBO

Jul 27, 2008 Well well I found this hiding in my fridge...it was old. really old and not good. tasted just like a sherry vinegar. I think it was too old to drink. But it had never left my fridge, so who knows. I wont kill it in the ratings becuase I assume it was skunked.

Jul 14, 2008 Bottle at Århus Ølfestival 2008. Pours a deep muddy red with a small pink head. Aroma and flavour of Cherry Gums, but not to sweet. Actually quite ok.

Jul 2, 2008 Bottle. Intense cherry aroma- pours mahogany / cherry red with a fluffy pink head. First sip is 100% all tart cherry, no beer flavor at all. Very unique, wasn’t expecting this, Not tasting oak or malt or hops. Taste is good, maybe a bit too sweet for me. Glad I tried it- hard to rate since it tasted more like a cherry 7-Up than a beer. But on a warm summer afternoon, look out- this will go down quickly.
