Skinnyviking (4142), Copenhagen, Denmark Dec 17, 2005 Bottle. Pink head. Red body. Cherry aroma. Bittersweet cherry flavor. Drunken relatively warm, maybe even better cold. badnewsbeers (1026), Grand Rapids, Michigan, USA Dec 16, 2005 RATING 300
im really into lindemans, and this one is good as well; aroma is huge in sweet cherry...appearance of red wine/cherry red with aerated foamy pink head....flavor is heavy in tart and sweet black cherry; very natural in flavor and although its great, it is a bit simple; decent palate; more enjoyable that my rating suggests, but is lacking complexity drinkebroer (3), Belgium does not count Dec 10, 2005 Although I don’t like the cherry beers that much, this is one I enjoy drinking. It is not to sweet and not the sour. It has a great taste of black cherry. madcow75 (425), Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, USA Dec 5, 2005 Pours a nice reddish hue with a fluffy pinkish head. Amazing black cherry wheat aroma. Wow, the taste is really strong, fruity, mostly cherries. This is my first lambic, not like beer as I’m used to it at all. Not sure how I feel about this style. A little too fruity for me. joshuah (37), Ferndale, Michigan, USA Dec 4, 2005 NIce fruity aroma, almost the same as the Framboise, but with a nice cherry finish, as always, great lambic. Korny (22), Quebec, Canada Nov 29, 2005 Rosée, jus fruits, fraise. Arôme de cerises très présent. Col moyen à l’effervescence soutenue. Saveur de cerise, cerise et aussi de cerise. Amertume symbolique. DrBayern (1135), Morehead City, North Carolina, USA Nov 22, 2005 I really have a hard time being objective about a beer like this. I just don’t like fruit, spices, etc. in my beer. That being said, I have tried to evaluate this in the context of what it is supposed to be, not necessarily what I migh t like. It certainly has a beautiful appearance with a clear light red pour and bubbly pink!!!??? head. The cherry aroma and flavor overwhelms everything. Effervescent, and slightly sour, it’s more like a sparkling wine than a beer. I guess as a desert beeer with something chocolate it would be quite appropriate. imdownthepub (5089), Banbury, Oxfordshire, England Nov 21, 2005 Bottled. Cloudy red with pink head. Sweet cherry, most definitely, with a powdery chalky slightly sour character. Perfumed on the nose and a lingering skinny sharp flavour. More challenging than enjoyable.
