Dec 27, 2008 Bottle at Chaucers Pub in London, ON. Decanted deep and colourful ruby red liquid, topped with a frothy pink cap. Nice nose of cherries, yeast, some raspberry, perfume. Tastes of sweet cherries, yeasty funk, kool-air, with tart cherry towards the end, with good acidity. Pretty well balanced.

Dec 22, 2008 Pours a deep ruby red with a slight pink head that sticks around for awhile. Nose of sweet black cherry soda, a mild hint of yeast and funk. It tastes like good dark cherry soda, but like cherry soda nonetheless. Very, very sweet. Full bodied, just enough carb and slight acidic zip to keep it from being a sugary mess.

Dec 20, 2008 Draught. Hazy ruby, huge pink lacey head. Almond and candy cherry nose, sweet & sugary, but with mild sour edge. Flavor is pretty much the same, lotsa candy like cherry, almonds, little wheat. Sweet but balanced and drinkable. Medium bodied, sticky yet extremely smooth palate. One of the best bonbon beers around.

Poured a pale pink head over a ruby red body. Beautiful smell of cinnamon, cherry, sugar, and cherry bubble gum. Taste was delicious sour cherry and a host of other tart berries, well rounded approach to the bitter finish. Beautiful lambic brew. Watery and fizzy on the palate. I could drink this all night.
