Bottle at Wild festival. Hazy purple with pink head. Sour cherries, warm tones of cooked cherries, suggestion of cinnamon. Moderate sweet and mild sour, light bitter. Medium body and soft carbonation.

This is the life. Heavy sourness, but very well hidden by the amazing amount of fruit thrown in. Soft, juicy peach as a backdrop, with bright, tart and gorgeous cherries bouncing around. Excellent balance, and so much flavour.

Pours dark red, unclear, pink head. Smell is intense, 'wet' cherries ( schaarbeekse ) . Milder pjassel. Taste is more pjassel minded though. Cherries, medium low carbo, relatively fullbodied. Complex, fruity, mild tartness. Nice !

Medium, dense pink-cyclamen head over fully opaque Bordeaux beer. Intense (sour) cherry aroma. Bready hints, eggbread with cherryspread and just a whiff of belegen cheese. Sour-sweet cherry, ideal balance, natural cherry liqueur. Finish has some fine lemon. Fruitacids and -flavours keep coming. Pretty lively carbonated. Super-long lasting fruitflavours, fruit-filled, fruitslick. I'm starting to understand why Raf's beers are so scarce. This is impressive.

Bottle @ Gebrande Winning. Pours saturated deep red with a pink head. Notes of dark cherries, raspberries, fruity acidity, lightly lactic, oaky, light tannic. Deeelicious!
