Draft - pours dark orange if not amber with thin offwhite head and decent lacing. Nose is fruity (can’t detect more due to the smoky atmosphere). Flavor adds raspberry, cherry and more reddish fruit. Sweet. Medium to full body. Hides the abv well.

Pours a clear pinkish color with a big pink head. Aroma is cherry smell with a bit of sourness. Taste is sweet cherry up front that changes into a creamy mouth feel with some cinnamon and almond on the finish.

(Draught) cloudy dark red, ring of white head. Nose of cherry pie, spices, agave, and wheat. Taste is bitter, cherry pie filling, spices, well carbonated, dry.

375 ml bottle @ Naamat, Tampere.
Pours hazy red color with a small steady head. Aroma of sweetish berries, honey, some fruits and yeast. Flavour of vanilla, berries, sweet fruits, some grain and yeast. Somewhat creamy palate with a sour twist. Weird. Can’t quite make up my mind this being good or not.

375 ml bottle @ Naamat, Tampere.
Pours a ruby red colour with a thick creamy head. Aroma of grainy malts, cherries, honey and wood. Flavour of sweet sourish cherries, vanilla, caramel, grainy malts and almonds. Medium bodied, smooth mouthfeel and a pungent cherry finish with vanilla and caramel. Rather interesting but also weird and borderline disturbing.

Bottle from Bottle Shop Canterbury. Quite a lovely mix of rice aroma cherries a touch saisony maybe good heat complexity and really rather pleasant better in mouth and swallow than aroma.

Nice cherry flavor with portlike notes. Dark reddish in color with a white head.

0,375 l bottle.
Poured murky pink brownish with a fantastic creamy foam on the surface. Some belgian yeast in the fruity aroma, some toasted grains, vanilla and candies, sour cherry with berries, spicies. Very interesting and lively aroma. Oily texture brings the fruity taste with cherries of course, vanilla and some lactic flavor, light sourish character, spicies like cinnamon. Fine, good and interesting one! Taste like a fine dessert. Yumm.

Bottle at home. Thanks Cecil for the gift. It pours hazy reddish with a creamy forever lasting white head. The aroma is cherries, sweet malt, fruit and some yeast. The flavour is cherries, fruit, spices, cinnamon and it has a creamy and smooth texture.

Sweet up front, tart towards the end. Don't taste the almond though. Great Belgian smell and taste. Doesn't taste like 8% ABV... ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
