No head; cyclamen to ruby-red, still beer. Obvious sour cherry, faint acetic acid, cherryjam diluted with raspberry vinegar. Sourish, but not overwhelmingly any longer, much less obvious cherry than in the nose. Fruitacids. Sharp, bit burning MF; long-lasting aftertaste, which yields cherry again. Not half bad!Earlier Rating: 2/26/2017 Total Score: 4.2Small pink rim over deep cyclamen-red beer. Superb sour cherry nose, and spiced wood, cinnamon. Sweet-sourish flavour, very fruity character with pure sour cherries. Light body, also thanks to acidthinning. Excellent! Nose is out of the charts.
