Feb 20, 2009 Coriander, wheat, cranberries and maple on the nose, in that order. Very nice in terms of the color, but not sour enough to be a lambic. It’s a good beer, but it seems more like a weizenbock with a Belgian touch. The fruit flavor also could be more pronounced, and the coriander could be toned down. The aftertaste is a tad medicinal. All in all, not bad, but Boston makes better beers.

Feb 20, 2009 12oz bottle. Not a terrible beer, but it says something that it’s not even classified as a "Lambic - Fruit" on RB. Reddish-yellow appearance with a minimal head. Aroma of yeast, wheat, and cranberry. Flavor is wheaty with some cranberry at the finish. Pretty average mouthfeel with average carbonation. You could do better, but you could also do worse.

Feb 18, 2009 Bottle Pours a red amber with a small white head. Has an aroma of cranberry and yeast. Has an okay carbination but was happy about the mouthfeel. Has a fruity flavor and kind of not my cup of tea. It is interesting but not really what I am into.

Feb 16, 2009 Bottle. Pours an unappealing red/cranberry color. Smells sweet and fruity. Taste is too sweet for beer. Not a fan of this style.

Feb 15, 2009 Not your typical lambic.... flavor is mostly wheat malt with a hint of cranberry... lacks the sweet & sour flavor.... not a terrible beer, but not for lambic lovers....

Feb 14, 2009 I was intrigued by this beer when I saw it in the mix pack but was completely disgusted when I tried it. Things that taste this bad are usually bad for you. Maybe not a good choice for an intro to lambics, but I’ve got to say this has almost completely turned me off. The cranberry flavor was very hard to discern from the other funky flavors assaulting my mouth. Difficult to drink without gagging. I’ve tried it on multiple occasions to make sure I just didn’t get a bad one, but I can’t get away from that taste. It’s maddening!

Feb 13, 2009 12 oz bottle from the Holiday case. A reddish amber color with almost no head. It has a pleasant tangy cranberry taste with hints of cereal and citrus and clove. I’m not usually a big fan of fruit beer but I enjoyed this one.

Feb 10, 2009 bouteille, il est très difficile de faire un lambic hors de Belgique, c’est un exemple, il a quelque chose de faux dans cette bière, elle est trouble, rosacée, nez fruitée, bouche aigre,
