355ml bottle. Pours a rich red color with a very small pink head. Aroma is of cherries. That is pretty much it. There was a noticeable tanniny twang to it that reminded me of a wine. Flavor is like a black cherry extract. Very overtly cherry. The mouthfeel was a little too syrupy for me. It almost, all together, tasted like a gourmet soda. It coated my mouth a little too much for me and didn’t remind me too much of a beer. There is a nice tartness to it that I like. I really like this beer but couldn’t drink much more that one of them in a night.

Wasn’t a huge fan. Pour was red with aroma of sugar and cherries. Flavor was very artificial and too sweet. Probably not worth another buy. Might try another one of their lambics.

Cherry red, medium sized pink head. Strong cherry scent. Extremely sweet, almost like drinking a Jolly Rancher candy. If you don’t want sweet, this isn’t for you.

Pours cherry red with a nice sized pink head. Aroma is all cherry. Nice sweetness without being too sweet.

Pours a red w/a bubbly pink head. Aroma of cherry lifesavers candy. Flavor is sweet cherries, sugar has a soft light minerally backing with a faint tinge of tart green apple in the finish. Spritzy body with ample carbonation.

Bottle. Served in a flute. Pours Red with a small pink head. Smells like, well, cherries, but was a bit on the artificial syrup side. Although the flavor was a bit sugary, I liked it very much, just like the other Lindemans brews. Some tartness too. Medium, fizzy body. Nice refreshing dessert.

A cloudy dark plum beer, with a 1 inch pink head that lasts 10 minutes. Aroma is of malty cherry. Flavor is really good cherry. Texture is fizzy. This is my favorite flavor of the lindemans lambics. medium/light body. Natural finish.
