Bottle [12oz] shared with HogTownHarry & garthicus -- c/o HogTownHarry. Pours a very deep ruby with an average size light-pink head. Very nice cherry aroma -- sweet but quite lovely. Great tart cherry flavour along with a hint of spices and wood. Average to medium bodied. Fantastic, I loved it!

mkel07 (1556) - Brisbane, AUSTRALIA - MAR 20, 2010
375ml bottle. Deep burgundy colour with a thick pink faom head. Looks differemnt with a strong aroma of sour cherries, sweet and perfumy. Extremely sweet to taste and quite overpowering with a long lingering aftertaste, almost to the point of being bitter. Certainly different.

Boliv (964) - New York, USA - MAR 20, 2010
750mL bottle. Pours sparkling garnet red and effervescent with a small foamy pink head. Aromas are sour cherry, champagne, sugar, cherry cough syrup, and a little alcohol. Flavor is very similar; sweet cherry that fades to a nice tart cherry finish that hits you in the back of the tongue. Effervescent, sweet, smooth, almost a touch syrupy, with an enjoyable crisp tartness. Really nice.

FreshHawk (596) - Iowa City, Iowa, USA - MAR 15, 2010
Bottle. A - Deep rosy crimson color. Large red tinted white foamy head. S - Sweet, bold cheery. Also has a good sourness and a little tart. T - Similar to the smell. Sweet cherry is the primary flavor. There is a bit of tart and sour. M - Medium body and decent carbonation. A bit sticky. D - Decent, but the taste would be a little much after a while. Similar to other Lindemans’ offerings, probably a little too sweet to have great drinkability. Notes: Sweet lambic, similar to an alcoholic, sour cherry Kool-Aid. Similar to other Lindemans’, quite sweet with a bit of tartness.

UPDATED: MAR 24, 2010 Véletlenül tévedtünk a győri John Bull Pub étterembe, de egy megérzés miatt vacsorából jövet éppen itt pihentünk meg, hátha találunk valami különlegeset levezetésként. Jelentem nekem ez meggysör az volt! Mindig is oda voltam a meggymárkáért és egyszerűen szólva az a sör egy erősen prémium meggymárka alkohollal. Már ránézésre is megnyerő a teljességet formáló gömbszerű pohárban kiérkező mélypiros színű ital, a tetején vastag, rózsaszín habbal. Illata a savanykás gyümölcsé. Kortyolva a szénsavasságát fokozza az illatára is jellemző savanykás, de mégis édes meggy aroma. Ez az íz uralkodik és szinte mindent el is nyom maga körül. Ideális desszert helyett vagy mellé. 3,5 % alkohol tartalma végig a háttérben marad, az íze nem is utal rá, hogy ez nem csak egy kitűnő üdítő, hanem igenis egy jól eltalált sör!

judasbeer (431) - Budapest, HUNGARY - MAR 2, 2010
Appearance: Clear red with pink head. Effervescent look.
Aroma: Sweet cherry juice with sour ascorbic-acid feel.
Flavor: Uninspired, flat sweet cherry candies and tart cherries, nothing to metion about.
Mouthfeel/Palate: Reminiscent of cherry-flavored effervescent tablet.
Overall Impression: Nice drinkability, but a false lambic creation.

Fratto (1814) - Arlington, Texas, USA - FEB 22, 2010
Bottle from the Fort Worth Gingerman. Lots of pink head. Aroma is cherry candy and Jolly Ranchers past their prime. Taste is sweetener, Splenda, and cherry flavor. Really fizzy and a bad kind of tart.
