Draft. Bièere rosée, blanche. Fruitée avec cerise tout en gardant ce profile de blanche. Bon, ça joue son effet, c’est léger fruité avec cette impression de jus de cerise tout en gardant une pointe épaisse de blanche. Dommage que il faille encore rajouter du sucre, ça gâche un peu le goût de la cerise. C’est dans la même lignée que les Floris.

Originally rated February 2007. Part of the Lefebvre gift-pack, this one pours a cloudy dark pink (on the red-side) colour with a light pink creamy head. Great retention and thick creamy lacing. Chunks of yeast end up at the bottom of the glass. A very pleasant dessert cherry aroma is present, with a touch of nuts, which reminds me of Amaretto. Says it uses 15% cherry juice in the ingredients list, and sugar also. The mouthfeel is not tarty, but not completely watery. Just smooth. The taste is mild compared to the smell. It is a little sweet, with a slight sourness in the background. Seems to be balanced out to impress visually, but yet, be accessible to normal drinkers. I still really enjoyed this one.

Bottle from K-Supermarket Kamppi(?). Originally rated on 2.7.2010. Sugary, not very sour. Tastes more like a soda pop.

Bottle. Clear deep red with a stable pink head. Aroma of cherry popsicles. Really sweet flavor of artificial cherry, sugar and light acidity. Light-bodied. Drinkable but tastes like a cheap candy.

Bottle, stable long lasting bublegum pink head, almost clear lightish red colour, aroma of cherries, cinamon and candy, flavour of cherries and apples, quite sweet but with a pleasant sourness and a light bitterness creeping in the back, lingering sour apple aftertaste. Pretty nice.

Draught at Pivnice, Helsinki. Poured "smurffi" lemonade color with a pink huuuge fluffy head. Sweet aroma of cherries. Mostly cherries in flavor. Ended sweet. Bit too sweet, but enjoyable on a warm day.

Sold at an Ed store in Paris. Very pink body, very pink head but at least it stays there. Aroma is cherry detergent and sugars, with just a slight hint of sour corn on the back end. Taste is a soft mix of cherry with some barnyard funk and a dry finish. Which makes it actually not so bad.
