Belgian ale with cherry and elderberry.
Deep dark red colour (EBC 40), with a light pink, compact and lacing head.
Soft fruity aroma, with hints of almond and mildly sour cherries. Sweet and fruity, with a nice balance between sweet and sour. An excellent dessert beer.

Another foray into the world of fruit beers. On tap at Bohemian House in Chicago, I got a tulip glass filled with a moderate red body topped by a pink-white head that slowly dissipated. It certainly delivered a distinct cherry scent. Taste was more of the same, heavily cherry, quite sweet with just a bit of traditional beer background, grain and barley perhaps. Sort of a sugary version of cherry cough syrup. Good to try I guess, likely I do not make a return trip. 8/11/18

On tap. Dark red, cloudy, head does not stay long. Heavy sweetness, lightly sour. Lots of cherry, alcohol well hidden. Too sweet for me.

Bottled. Murky red body, pinkish white head. Pleasant sweetish cherry juice aroma. Taste... again, cherry juice, ending dry and slightly bitterish, well hidden alcohol, tasty stuff. Slightly too dry for my tastes, but hey, classy stuff.

Bottle as a gift. dark red colour, light pink foam, stays long. Sweet nose of sweet cherries, some tartness, skunky malts, light bitter. Very artificial and sweet fruit beer.

Flaska från belgiuminabox. 2014 vintage. Lätt syrlig, lite syltig textur, smak av körsbär med mycket kärnsmak som ger karaktär och lätt beska. Väl balanserad sötma. Riktigt trevlig.
