COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Belgian Red is a tapestry of flavor. This beer is brewed with whole Montmorency Cherries, Wisconsin farmed wheat and Belgian roasted barleys, lagered in oak tanks and balanced by Hallertau hops we aged in our brewery one full year. Over a pound of Door County Cherries in every bottle makes this beer uniquely “Wisconsin.” So unique, in fact, that we applied for a patent. Expect this beer to be ruby red, with a medium body that is highly carbonated and intense with cherry flavor and bouquet.

It doesn’t taste much like beer in the traditional sense. It’s more like the best strongly cherry flavored soda water. It’s a very tasty brew. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Sampled at the SuperBowl 46. Smells fake cherry, tastes real cherry. Flavor is just about the best fruit red cherry pie I’ve ever tasted. LOVE the flavor. But the aroma doesn’t do it for me all that much. GOOD SHIT!

A very nice cherry sparkling ale. Sweet and tart. Great natural cherry flavor.

750 mL bottle. Pours a ruby red with a slightly orange head. Juicy cherry aroma, lightly tart. Flavor again has the juicy, almost medicinal cherry, combined against undertones of toasty malt. Dry, very slightly tart finish. Definitely a really nice fruit beer.

Wonderful fruit beer with every swallow filled with cherry taste; however, the fruit is not too sweet or overpowering. A must try for any beer enthusiast or cherry lover.

One of the best beers ever created. Solid bright red color, pinkish head, great retention rate. Wonderful tart cherry flavor, not sweet , perfect. Best in style by far.

Possibly my favorite beer of all times, or at least in the category of "my favorite style." Great cherry smell, whopping with gobs of fruitiness. Taste follows right behind, amazingly sweet and full of great cherry goodness. Body is sweet and so amazingly easy to drink you’ll wish you never ran out of the stuff. Hands down the best fruit beer I’ve ever had.

Strong sweet cherry aroma. Pours a dark cherry red. Taste is very sweet and a bitter tart after taste. A small hint of malt. For its kind it is a fantastic beer but the sweet strength is a little overpowering for me. Still worth a taste especially if you favor fruity beers.
