Dogbrick (2816), Columbus, Ohio, USA Mar 10, 2002 Let me start off by saying I like cranberries. Cranberry bread, cranberry muffins...but not cranberry beer. The aroma was interesting but I barely finished the bottle, and had to drink it in short doses to get through. Just not my thing I guess.
coldmeat23 (72), Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA Nov 11, 2009 Medium level copper color. Smallish white head with good retention and no lacing.
Smells of butterey cranberries. Malty.
More of the same here. Cranberry is definitely front and center. Almost too sweet. Butterey, malty flavor follows. No bite at all.
Feels weak and (too) light. Not enough body for the style.
If I got this again, I’d probably give it away, instead of drinking it. TampaBrew (749), Tampa, Florida, USA Nov 10, 2009 POurs a nice hazy purple red. Nose is yeast, mild tart, and bread. Flavor is semi tart, bready, yeasty, fruity, sour fruit, fresh cranberry. This beer cracks me up with the "lambic" in it’s name. It’s almost like its trying to be a clean funky sour. beerthirty22 (3), Georgia, USA does not count Nov 9, 2009 Well.....let me put it this way....Have you ever almost puked after drinking a shit ton of beers and ate some sour cherries, cranberries ? and a little came up into the back of your mouth ? Thats what this shit tastes like..... STRAIGHT UP SOUR PUKE - !! KajII (50), Macon, North Carolina, USA Nov 9, 2009 Bottle. Poured a murky light red in color with a small fizzy head that was mostly diminishing with fair lacing. The aroma was that of bready malts and cranberries and well as a light scent of spice. It tasted sweet and acidic with a heavy cranberry wine like flavor. Mouthfeel was a little watery in texture with a light to medium body. Overall a nice flavored brew. deyholla (508), Bloomington, Indiana, USA Nov 7, 2009 Bottle. Poured a hazy reddish gold with a small white head. Aroma had strong tart cranberry notes as well as some acid. Flavor was a bit syrupy with a cranberry juice flavor as well as some acid and sour notes. SuIIy (1408), Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, USA Nov 5, 2009 Bottle. Pours a hazy redish orange color with a minimal off white head. nose is acidic, sour juice, cranberry light sweet malt. Palate is syrupy and fizzy with a sour finish. Flavors are sour cranberry, some tartness, lots of fruit notes, very little malt notes. ALCOHOLNIZM (59), WARWICK, USA Nov 3, 2009 THIS BEER LOOKS LIKE FREMENTED CRANBERRY JUICE AND SMELLS LIKE A BERLINER WEISSE. I LOVE CRANBERRY JUICE AND OF COURSE I ALSO LOVE BEER, HOWEVER THIS BREW DOSNT MIX TO WELL WITH ME TOO MUCH WHEAT FLAVOR AND NOT VERY PLEASANT SOUR FERMENTATION . NOT A VERY GOOD FRUIT BEER. moose85uofa (15), Alabama, USA Nov 2, 2009 Very fruitful, although highly carbonated. Deep, rich amber in color. Rests nicely on the palate and has smooth aftertaste. Good choice during the month of November.
