3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle at alvinne and at the struise farm. Alround rating: What a colour, its super pink with a glorious head. Fresh fruity cherry tart aroma, hints of funkyness, some wheaty cereal character, but its soo fresh and refreshing that its all forgotten.
4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
A collaberative brew between Struise (using Struiselensis) and Alvinne (using their Kerasus) which debuted at the Pre-ZBF fest at Alvinne this past weekend.
The beer poured a nice ruby red color with a vibrant pink head. The aroma was a bit sour, cherry. A touch of wood could be detected as well. The seems to be a good mix of the two base beers although I get a bit more of the Kerasus. There are solid cherry notes, wood and overall a tart character on the tongue. Overall a very solid beer that will benefit further from some bottle age I would think.

Bottle at Pre ZBF, Alvinne, 06-03-09 Pours a murky cherry colour with a real girlie pink head which swiftly dissapeared. Aroma is full on cherries with a little woodiness and nice slightly tingly sourness. Wonderfully tart, though not aggressively sharp in the mouth, the cherries are quite marvellous, nicely dry, really moreish beer, great full on fruitiness in here, loved it. A7 A4 F8 P4 OV17 4.1
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle, at Pre-ZBF, pours hazy cherry color with little to no head. Aroma is very earthy with some cherry shining through. Sweet and sour cherry body that ends with a wierd wood/mold kind of earthy finish. This was still an enjoyable beer, but I think it needs more time in the bottle, and I’m glad that I picked some up.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
33 cL bottle. Pours hazy deep golden red with a small pink head. Dry wooden and almondish cherry dry aroma. Dry, acetone, cherry and wooden flavoured as the main impressions. Dry cherry fruity flavoured into the far finish. Dry cherry as the main impression, the struiselensis doesnt really shine though I thought until I compared this to the Kerasus - there is certainly body and substance from the Struiselensis in this.

4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Nice, good, fine pink head over ruby red beer with faint haze. Faint sourish aroma, real cherries jumping out of the glass, and light woody background. Starts with dry, delicate patisserie cookies, and a very aromatic flowery background, gradually giving in to red fruit. Light, refreshing, long fruity aftertaste. Excellent mild fruitbeer.
