Bacchus Cherry Beer is brewed using Bacchus Flemish Old Brown as a base. This cherry beer surprises with a slight touch of caramel from the roasted malt. Bacchus Cherry Beer offers a beautiful balance between the aromas of ripe cherries and the sweet and sour of the base beer.

0.375 l bottle from 'Brauart', bottled in May 2025. Clear, very deep ruby with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, beige head. Sweetish, rather fruity, a bit artificial aroma of cherry juice, almond and sherbet powder. Quite sweet, a little sourish, quite fruity and minimally artificial taste of cherry juice, almond, some sherbet powder and a touch of oak, followed by a short, a little tartish, moderately bitter finish. Medium body, a little astringent and gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Too sweet for my liking but nevertheless a decent brew.

Bottle from Tesco. Clear ruby body with a little thin beige head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of glazed cherry and caramel. Flavour of cherry syrup and pomegranate. Thin to medium body with a slick texture. Light fizz. Not far off cherry cola. It’s good but overall too sweet - almost like an alcopop.

Draft. Crimson reddish beer with a cream head. Cherry and light tart aroma. Cherry and light sour flavor with light malt. Medium bodied. Cherry and light sourness linger with light malt and very light acetic notes.

Pours a deep ruby red with a small pinkish head. Aroma of sweet cherry. Flavour is artificial cherry, candy sweetness. Not much sourness, in fact I’d like this much better with more pungent tartness.

В армоате в основе не только сама черешня но и много косточки от нее, немного намеки на ягоды и легкие ноты клубники. Цвет темный красный, кровавый такой, пенка немного не естественная, розовая такая. Вкус очень питкий и приличный, ровный что ли. С самого начала черешня с косточкой, такой сок настоящий но с добавкой сахара. В послевкусие немного вяжущий эффект, уже больше самой косточки. В Целом ровно и вкусно, но без яркости, и версия с малиной была лучше на децл.
