Jan 23, 2009 330ml bottle - b/b April so it kept well...!!! Orange in colour - no real red hues as others describe. Has the cheap artifical fruit nose but it’s kinda fun. Cranbeery fruit, almost cordial like and spritzy carbonation. Lambic notes but done very lightly, again almost feels artifical. I think from what I read many others don’t really get this beer. it’s not a great interpretation of the style but no where near as bad as many suggest. Open minds people.

Jan 22, 2009 Bottle. Pour was a very reddish amber with mild carbonation. Aroma was bitter with a little noticable berry. Flavor was berry with a little funky yeast on the finish. An ok macro fruit beer, but not much better than that.

Jan 21, 2009 Bottle poured a hazy cranberry red with a small diminishing pink head. Aromas of cranberry, wheat and a faint hint of spice. Really not much to smell here. Palate was light to medium bodied and smooth. Not lambic like at all. Flavors of cranberry, light cookie and a hint of spice with a smooth cranberry finish.Not lambic like in any strtch of the imagination!

Jan 21, 2009 12oz bottle from Holiday 12-pack. Pours a cloudy reddish color with an off white, almost pinkish head. Sour yeasty smell with a hint of tart berries. Initial taste isn’t too bad, light bodied with some sweetness. Then the tart cranberry juice kicks in and leaves you with an unpleasant puckering finish. A funny aftertaste lingers for a while making things even worse. It took some determination to finish the whole bottle.

Jan 20, 2009 12 oz bottle, Slightly reddish amber, mild aroma and tartness of cranberry. Must be an acquired taste, doesn’t work for me.

Jan 19, 2009 Roby red pour with a small head. Aroma of sweet cherries and cranberries. Also possibaly a belgian yeast as well. Same with the flavor it near as strong as I thought. i would call it a lambic but its not bad it drink able , the alcohol is very well hidden. well got a few more to go.....I guess this would be uncool but yes I did buy the holiday pack from rite aid..... so expect a few more ratings

Jan 19, 2009 Honestly, off the top of my head, this is the worst beer from a craft brewery that I have ever tasted. I tasted this out of the Winter 12-pack and after the first sip, not only poured the rest out but popped the second one and dumped that too. Smells of cranberry but tastes kinda like throwing up red wine, sorry to get so graphic. Taste this at your own risk!
