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.

09-01-21 // 330ml bottle. Clearish dark red. Light pinkish head. Nose is cherry sweet, slightly artificial sirupy. Taste is okay. Stronger malty base, sweet caramel malts. Cherry sweetness, darker fruit. Slightly marzipan cherry pit. Minimal tartness. Nice to taste but drinking a whole bottle would be too much artificial sirupy sweetness for me.

Bottle, 0.33l. Murky deep red/purple pour, thin soapy pink-ish head, short lasting. Minimaln lacing on the glass. Nice on the nose, sweet, cherry candy, molasses. Medium body, soft carbonation. Smooth mouthfeel and texture, soft, moderately chewy. Sweet taste with very mild sour and bitter notes. Taste is cherry candy, molasses, syrup. Sugary, a bit artificial. Forest fruits and berries in the background. Some grassy notes. Sticky. Mild bitterness in the aftertaste, slightly off-placed. Well hidden alcohol. Short lasting finish, sweet. Nothing to get excited about.

Pours dark reddish-puple, large lasting pink head.Nose shows cherries, bubblegum, almond, marzipan.Flavours include more cherry, but in an artificial way. There's a cloying sweetness, and then metallic bitterness in the finish.

Opaque reddish color and a nice pinky head. Nose is sweet cherries, red fruits and a twist of black currants. Taste is rather sweet, raspberries, cherries, a little lambic style. Rather long finish.

Dark blood colour. Light aroma of marzipan; sweet flavour, cherry syrup, with little cherry pit / almond / marzipan.
Not too bad, but it's like drinking a candy.
