Very sweet strawberry and vanilla nose. Spritzy carbonation sweet cherries with a slight tartness. Deep red.

Sampled at Nærbø Ølfestival. Brownish red body with a moderate pinkish head. Intense aroma of cherry and almond. Flavor is sweet and artificial cherry with some acidity, but this is well hidden in all these sweetness. Almost candy style flavor, not my type of beer. Medium to thin body. Aftertaste is just a mess of sweetness and artificial stuff, I got sugar on my teeth.

Fine fruit taste, with little malt or hops. Clear reddish color, with modest head and thin body. The least impressive of the Liefmans that I have tried.

Had it as On the Rocks at the Belgian Beer Weekend. Pours a deep red with aromas of light cherries and assorted other berries. The body was medium and was sour, tart. Cherries seeped through enough and it was smoothe and easy.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
250ml bottle from Waitrose:
Very sweet smelling & is a mix of cherry and berries such as raspberry. The finish smells quite sour and tart like towards the end.
Cherry red colour that is clear & forms a tiny, bubbly pinkish white head around the brim that goes fast.
A good mix of cherry, raspberry and a syrupy sweetness. The finish is slightly sour and has a fizzy soft drink feel to it; it’s better than I had expected.
Smooth & light bodied with a lingering sweetness and good carbonation.
Not a bad tasting drink and more appealing that I thought it would be, it goes down well and is rounded off by a good, sour finish.

Bottle.
Pours a deep raspberry with a cherry white head with a nose of sweet and sugary raspberry. Flavor is sugar-bomb raspberry. Average mouthfeel. Too sweet.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Thanks to the kind soul who opened this at the last Tampa Crew tasting. Pours a light pink color with a white head. Nose is kool-aid, sweetener, table sugar, and berry puree. Flavor is similar with lots of red kool-aid, berry puree, and sweetness all over. Light in body and very very uber sweet.
1.9 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Pours dark red with a thin pink fully receding head. Notes of sweet strawberry, cherry, and tart fruits. Sweet and acidic, like sour candy. Thin to medium bodied with lively carbonation. Overly sweet and artificial tasting, not good. I would not have bought this if I knew it had Ace K in it.
