0.75L bottle. Crystal clear cherry red colour, not much head. Aroma of cherry and leather, the same traits continue in the flavour profile with some vanila notes added. Quite sweet with some pleasant tartness. Aftertaste agreeable but almost non existent. Body is light which makes for some very easy enjoyable drinking, as evident by the bottle becoming empty far too quickly.

12.7oz bottle. Pours a bright, clear ruby red color; medium pink head with good retention and fine-bubbled lacing. Slightly medicinal, sweet black cherry syrup and mixed berries in the aroma; like black cherry Dr. Pepper; slightest touch of funk. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: lots of sweet black cherries (though not quite to the point of stickiness), mixed berry punch, and lightly tart (very lightly tart) citrus, plus a touch of minerals; overly sweet, not heavy, but very sweet and syrupy; something to split at the end of an evening, with some sort of chocolate-laden dessert. Medium finish: sweet, syrupy black cherries, mixed berries, and light base maltiness.

375ml bottle shared by kmweaver. Pours mostly clear bright maraschino cherry red. Nose is semi-sweet candied yogurt cream cherries. Juicy, somewhat artificial, but not terrible. For a dessert beer it smells just fine. Medium to light body, silky up front, more rounded over the middle but very sugary, almost gritty, syrupy candied cherries. Far too sweet, but tongues have evolved to like such things so it’s not that bad... sweet, candied, lightly creamy, a good dessert beer for sure.

Sample @ BBF 08, Boston. Pours a deep red with a nice pink head. Aroma is heavy cherry with a bit of funk in there as well. Taste is the same, with heavy cherries giving way to a nice funky aftertaste. This is a bit underrate - I liked it.

25 cl bottle, bought in Oostende. Deep red color, big pink head. Sweet and cherry aroma. Flavor is sweet with lots of cherries. I must admit I like it.

I dont get around to drinking lambics very often but I was on a date and got one for us after dinner. It was very sweet and tasted like candy. Not really my taste but she enjoyed it so I was happy.
