Mamma mia le ciliegie. Colore bello rosso con schiuma rosetta. Poi aroma di ciliegia, gusto di ciliegia, bocca di ciliegia, ecc
3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 mattphilips (721) - Budapest, HUNGARY - JAN 3, 2011
Vöröses, bíbor szín és fura rózsaszínes hab, sör meseországból. Illatában nagyon érezni a meggyet és a cukros édességet, íze szintén meggyes, továbbá erdei gyümölcsös és aszalt szilvás, cukrosan édes, ugyanakkor egyben fanyar. Ez a túlzott cukrosság, ami különösen a lecsengésében jön elő, és a valahogy különváló fanyarság között valahogy nincs meg az összhang, egyszer az egyikből, másszor a másikból van túl sok. Összességében azért egy nagyon finom gyümölcsös sör, elég komoly alkoholtartalommal méghozzá, de igazság szerint picivel jobbat vártam. Desszertekhez párosítva és sört általában kerülőknek (főként a gyengébbik nem) is beválhat.

Pours a dark red with lots of effervescence but minimal head. It smells of cherry concentrate and sugar. It tasted like cough syrup and had a strong, chemical aftertaste. It was also fairly hot and alcoholic tasting. Overall, it tasted too artificial and medicine-y.

Had on tap at The Beer Store as Kasteel Rouge. Bought a 4 pack of bottles. Very interesting. Sweet cherry taste, but not sickly sweet. Does not taste like 8%. Very smooth. Not so much beer, but more like a fruit mixed drink. A nice change-up.

Bottled. A deep deep red coloured beer with no head. Seemed more raspberry than cherry to me. Sweet and very fruity, but there’s still a good beery feel to it. Strong. Tasty.

Bottle, at the Manneke Pis, Tenerife, as Kasteel Rouge. Served with correct glass. ABV 8%. Dark red colour, nearly black in the glass. Low and short-lived pink head. Strong aroma of preserved cherries. Lovely flavour of preserved cherries and malts.

I tried this as Kasteel Rouge at a bar in DC called Granville Moore’s . The aroma is like sweet cherry pie. Dough and cherries. Cannot discern the color well in this dark bar but it’s at least a deep red. Smooth and mellow. Cherry flavor dominates but is pleasant.

On tap at FFF; pour is ruby with a pinkish/white head. Decent retention around the edges of the kasteel glass. Aromas are of sweet cherry juices. Flavors are cherries, cherry juice, a bit of tartness and heavy on the sweetness. It is a very nice brew but it seems overly simplistic to me. Very smooth, very palatable, its nice.
