Jun 1, 2008 This one pours bright red almost crimson with a pink fluffy froth that dies down to a thin ring. The aroma is cherry pie filling, a bit of funky yeast, some hay, but it is mostly cherry. Tastes up front of very sweet cherries and at points becomes almost cough syrupy, with flavours of very sweet maraschino cherry. In the middle, there are some funky yeasty flavours that lead to sour cherry finish right towards the end. I think this beer would benefit from having the sweetness toned down a bit, and there would be potential for a good Kriek, but as it stands now, it is just too damn sweet.

May 31, 2008 Not the best lambic, with a somewhat manufactured cherry flavor, but I don’t find it quite as poor as some seem to.

May 30, 2008 250 mL bottle. (bb 30/01/10). Bright ruby red with a small but thick and foamy pink head. Strong aroma of sweet cherries - almost candy-like. The flavour is strong as well, and does kind of a sour-sweet-sour thing. The cherry flavour is terribly artificial. Unpleasant finish.

May 29, 2008 Bottle, LCBO. Pours a deep blood red with a thin wisp of a pinkish white head. Strong halls cough candy aroma - so artificial. Taste - about the same. Halls like sweetness a touch of sourness. Pretty disgusting really. Not even passable as an intro to the style or Kriek for beginners - this is just gross.

May 23, 2008 12 oz bottle...poured a garnet red w/ a very, very small pink head that left no lacing. Nose was quite pleasant and consisted of dark cherries, and some florals. The flavor was somewhat sweet cherry, white grapes, sour apples, and a tiny bit of vanilla oak. The palate was somewhat oily, light bodied, with a strong acidic "zing" near the back. Very enjoyable beer and one that my wife actually liked!

May 22, 2008 Bottle from total wine in St. Pete, Pours Purple/Pink with a fairly good size head which finally rests at about a 1/2 an inch. The smell is super fruity, similar to those airhead candies. Super sweet flavor, tart finish. I like my lambic a little on the sour side, and this isn’t really that at all. Overall really enjoyable
