VeloVampire (383), Parkdale, Toronto, Ontario, Canada Apr 8, 2008 375 ml bottle - pours a rosy-rose colour with a very pleasing fluffy pink head that leaves a nice lace. Aroma has a funky sourness and sour cherry - but this is clearly cherry syrup (as the bottle, to its credit, states), not real cherry. Nice, nonetheless. Flavour is slightly medicinal, with sour cherry, and some yeastiness as well. Noting sensational, and I prefer the Framboise to this, but it makes a nice light spring sipper. I will get this again.
KimJohansen (3171), Copenhagen V, Denmark Aug 26, 2008 Clear red with pink head. Sweet aroma with artificial cherries and almond notes. Sweet flavor that holds notes of marzipan and cherries. Ends sweet. mgermani (591), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Aug 20, 2008 Pours a pale pink with a paler pink head with decent retention. Light sweet artificial cherry smell. Tastes like cherry pop, watery, drinkable though, rather inoffensive. Ok carb, thin body. Quaffable, bland. DuffMan (1935), Calgary, Alberta, Canada Aug 15, 2008 Pours a lovely dark pink, hazy. Black cherries dominate the aroma and flavour, with a slightly lactic and musty edge to add character. A nice summertime sipper. Blom (641), Odense, Denmark Aug 9, 2008 Red with a pale red head. Sweet cherry aroma plus... hmm.... tomato or carrot juice? The flavours are very sweet too -like carbonated lemonade . It’s cloying and to be honest neither refreshing nor interesting. gilvanblight (341), Windsor, Ontario, Canada Aug 8, 2008 Redish pour with a thick lacey head. Cherry and hops scent. Not that sweet, actually kind of tart. Rather nice for a fruit beer (not usually a fan).
