3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle from Red, White, and Brew in Mt. Holly, NJ. Pours a great body - dark, ruby red with some sediment and a small pinkish head. The aroma is a cherry lolli-pop, lots of sugar. Taste is extremely sweet, too sweet actually. No taste of alcohol. They should just double the abv in this bad boy, then you’d have a beer.
1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 9/20
250 ml bottle lcbo. Pours a clownish Maraschino-red color with a ludicrously dish-soapy head. Sour and cherry jolly-rancher aroma. Flavor is repeat of aroma with some old wood notes, and some striking vinegar sourness that burns into the palate and feels rough in the pipes. Perfecty rings of fake foam, and that damn sweet kid’s-candy-cherry aroma... a harsh product, but one not as horrifying as Chapeau Lemon.

Sampled at Zythos 2009. Haze, deep red, very pink head. Stupid kiddie sweet aroma. Really just a sweet alcopop, but not unlikeable.

Consumed at Zythos, St Niklaas, Belgium, 08-03-09 This came courtesy of Ian and Mes who were on a Brouwerij De Troch tasting mission, cheers lads. Pours a wonderfull looking day old watered down blood with a great girlie pink head. Really quite sweet cherries, but its not unlikeable, its tangy and its actually ok. A6 A4 F6 P3 OV12 2.4

The appearance is, as expected, dark red. The aroma is like a very nice combination of wine and cherries. The taste is very good; the cherry flavor is strong, of course, while also having a sense of being a beer as well. It’s a very smooth beer as well. I really, really like this beer, and would recommend it to everyone.

3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
smells exactly like cherry pie, candied cherries with a little bit of breadiness. it pours dark red with a small but lasting head. tastes a little sweet, tart kind of poppy in carbonation, but also lambic sour and with a bit of grain taste. very nice for a little refreshment, though i am not going to drink often, every now and then it would be nice to drink especially in summer. very cheap but also small and low alcohol, worth picking up for sure.
