There are few things in life more seductive than a sour cherry wild ale. Femme Fanale is a crimson, sensual brew easy to fall for. With 200 grams of fresh Moravian Fanal cherries per litre, this is a tart yet refreshing experience, which will keep you longing for more till the very sour end.

Dark red colour with thin head. Intense aroma of cherry sherbet. Tangy tart fruity cherries. Touch of cherry pit almond. Not a cherry fan but this is ok.

Sour ale aged on wooden barrels and macerated on Moravian sour cherries – a nod to the Belgian ‘oude kriek’ no doubt. Thanks Francis for sharing at Bar Beenhouwer. Medium sized, moussy, pale pinkish-tinged off-white, open head, hazy deep fuchsia robe with ruby red glow. Aroma of cherry skin and cherry tree leaves more than cherry flesh, almond, dust, swimming pool chlorine as is so often present in sour cherry beers, young grass shoots, bee wax, cooked plums. Dry-fruity onset, very clear and generous sour cherry flavours indeed, flanked with unripe plum and green apple notes; medium carb, supple mouthfeel with cereally core deeply buried under ongoing sour cherry tannins and acidity, with a softer yoghurty-lactic streak running underneath. Woodiness in the end along with an almondy aspect from the cherry stones, along with hints of grass and young green tree leaves; pronounced cherry skin tannins contribute to a dry, woody ending. Very generously ‘krieked’, lacking the complexity of cherry lambics perhaps, but for those into the pure flavour of sour cherry, recommendable enough.

0,75l bottle at home. Vintage 2020. deep red color, small white head. smells balsamic, cherry notes, oak, more berries. nice smell. full body, soft carbonation. tastes cherries, marzipan, bit balsamic, light marzipan, lactic. finishes rather dry and medium sour with notes of cherries, lactic and marzipan notes. good overall, but rather on the lactic/balsamic side, lacks some funk, tad too sourish, good but my least favorite Wild creatures beer so far.

Pours dark pink, big to huge pinkwhite head. Scent is full on cherry, but also funk from the basebeer. emphasis on brett for sure. Taste is full on cherries again, touch of fruity sweetness. Not nearly as dry as an Oude Kriek, but still very enjoyable. High on brett, lower on acidity.
