Draught at Poirotti. A light pink head. Hazy reddish colour. Lots of cherry in the nose. Sweetish cherry taste. Some hoppiness in the aftertaste later.

Pours a dark, dark purplish red with a creamy pink head. Aromas of, surprise, cherries. In the mouth it’s cherry soda up front, a bit of straw or grain husk with a nice tartness in the middle, and a surprising bitterness in the end. Light fizzy body with a syrupy feel going down. Long tart finish. A fine sipping beer but I wouldn’t drink this after mowing the yard.

Deep red colour with a pink head. Very strong sweet cherry aroma. A bit sour, sweet and cherry flavour. Medium-bodied. A bit too sweet, but still quite good.

Hazy red, lovely. Wonderful aroma. Tart body, with the sherries present but not ovewhelming, Brilliant aftertase. Close to Cantillon’s, in my opinion.

Deep, dark red in color......very fluffy, pinkish head. Sweet aroma of cherries. Tart cherry flavor up front......slightly crisp mouthfeel. Back is smoothed out by a sweet, yet not overwhelming, cherry taste. Overall, a very balanced lambic.

Had one 12oz bottle of it. If I was expecting the wine color then I may have liked it more. I was expecting a beer with some black cherry flavor. DEFINITELY not what I got. It did have a good fruit flavor but definitely doesn;t taste like beer.

Yep. Luden’s cough drops. Deep red in appearance with a pink foamy head that leaves nice lacing. Very sweet aroma of cherries. Tart, lively, and sweet. Starts very sweet like cherry candy. Finishes a bit tart. Smooth all of the way through. A very tasty and refreshing beer. Quite pricy, though.

I like Luden’s cough drops, and I like the concept of Lambics. Had a few sips of it and it was great. Not sure if I could finish an entire bottle of this though.
