May 31, 2007 Bottle. Full-bodied well balanced beer. Cherry (obvious) aroma. Very easy to drink. Great citric cherry sour flavor.

May 30, 2007 Bottle, 75cl. (thx to papsoe) Red, almost clear brew with a slightly artificial-feeling cherry nose, followed by almond and sugar. Marzipan, cherry and sugar in the flavor. Full, sticky mouthfeel. Astringent, citric finish with cherry. Too sweet, almondy and artificial-feeling. Unbalanced on the sweet side. Ok, so it’s a nice beer, but I can’t understand why it has so high ratings. (070510)

May 25, 2007 Wow, what a brew. Starts with popping the top and getting hit in the face with the aroma, awesome. Cherries, cherries, cherries. Smell, taste, everywhere. Full bodied, and easy to drink.
THanks a bunch TT.

May 23, 2007 Bottle purchased in Madison, WI. Are you sure this is beer? Pours a light reddish-brown, with a medium head that dissipates quickly. Very sour, and very, very cherry. The taste reminds me of real cherry pie - not pie filled with that crap you can buy in a can! It’s sweet on the lips, and it makes your mouth pucker. I could drink several of these in one sitting!

May 22, 2007 Updated: Jun 16, 2007Have been waiting years to try this and I was not disappointed. Sweet sour and just a hint of hops in the finish. May have bought 6 more bottles. Page 330 of Michael Jackosn’s Great Beer Guide and 192 of his 500 Classic Brew’s to go.

May 21, 2007 Pours deep red with a thin off-white head. Very sweet aroma of cherries. Taste is very tart with strong cherry presence. Very hard to drink much of this because of the sweetness.

May 20, 2007 Updated: Mar 31, 2009(Bottle 75 cl) Pours a hazy, reddish with an off-white head. Distinct aroma of sweet cherries and marzipan. Medium body with rich, sweet cherries - thick and almost like cherry sauce. Extremely fruity but definitely needs something to balance the extreme sweetness. Not a bad fruit beer at all, but I simply don’t understand the high ratings on this one. So many much better New Glarus beers around. 100507

May 18, 2007 25 ounce bottle. Flute. Reddish brown with a medium tan head. Aroma was all cherry pie. Taste was tart, sweet cherries. Well carbonated with some sour notes coming in as it warms. I definitely don’t think of beer when I drink this. It tastes more like cherry pie and ice cream, but wonderful none the less.
