2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
130312: Hazy red color with pink foam and a strong smell of cherry and vanilla. Penetrating flavors of cherry, while a slight dry bitterness. good fruit sweetness in the aftertaste. All in all a really good wheat beer with fruit that does not seem artificial or chemical taste like so many other fruit beer.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Not as good as the raspberry, but still a nice fruit beer. Aroma was decent. A slight funkiness with sour cherry. Pour was a nice bubbly red with a one finger pink head. Taste was delicious. Sour cherry makes the mouth pucker. Then a sweet cherry Jolly Rancher flavor comes in and carries through to the finish. Nice strong carbonation..
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Great sweet berry color Arima and taste. Flavor is a little salty on the end, some cherry pits. More of a maraschino cherry then a regular cherry. Head is pink so that is cool.
3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20
Well, it certainly smells nice, no doubt about that. And it looks good, too - red, pink head. It’s very heavy, though. And the Cherry flavor is mostly authentic, but there are some hints of cough syrup and cloying sweetness. Overall not bad, though.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle. Pours cherry with pink head. Nose/taste of sweet cherry juice and Luden’s cough drops with a touch of sweet malt. Very drinkable, but more juice-like than beer. Medium body.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20
In bottle. Pours a light red colour with a lasting pink head. Aroma of cherries, marzipan and caramel. Similar flavours, with sweet cherry upfront and a metallic finish. Moderate carbonation and a foamy mouth-feel.
2.6 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle @ Home. Pours light pinkish amber with a offwhite head. Aroma of artificial cherries, sugar. Taste is light bready malt, sweet artificial cherry, sugar, notes of marzipan. Thin body, lively carbonation. Fairly good looking, but this is to sweet for me. 281111
