Jul 13, 2008 Single from Binny’s (Orland Park, IL). Pours a deep dark red with a whitish red head that reminds me of the foam at the bottom of the bottle of cranberry juice after being shaken. Aroma is straight cherries, namely Luden’s Cherry cough drops. Initial is a sweet cherry with a touch of dry champagne-y taste. Very cherry. Dry, but not dry enough for me. Finishes sweet, and consistent. Smooth, but very sweet. Decent, but not very beery.

Jul 9, 2008 My first lambic so I did not no what to expect. Pours light rear with pink head. Reminds me of cherry 7 up and has the same texure. Flovor is cherry and some yeast. Sweet and tart. Flavor did not seem natural. Not to bad as I was expecting worse.

Jul 9, 2008 0.25 l bottle. Deep red color with pink head. Strong sweet, sour and perfumed cherry aroma. Very sweet, strong and juicy cherry flavor with hints sour horsey lambic flavors in the background. Too sweet but still fairly likable.

Jul 6, 2008 Very Sweet. Appearance is like soda. Tastes good but you can really only drink one or two. But I like it.

Jul 5, 2008 Normally I like kriek beers but this is so OTT with the cherry aroma and flavour that it really put me off. Looking at the ingredients I’m assuming the 25% cherry juice accounts for that, but adding cherry flavouring for gods sake! and sugar substitute...what the hells that? Ascorbic acid????? what’s that for? I did notice these ingredients on the label before tasting it, so perhaps that influenced my rating, nevertheless, I didn’t enjoy this beer, too sweet and too in yer face with the cherries! Really unbalanced. Oh, by the way, I bought it in Tesco if you’re interested.

Jul 4, 2008 My wife thought this was too weak. Need I say more? Nose and flavor and finish completely cherry.

Dark ruby red, soft pink head. Aroma is mainly cherries, ever so slight hint of yeast. Tastes very fresh, not as much of fermented cherry as some others. Flavor is slightly richer on tap, but it’s excellent either way. This has become my summer favorite.
