A cherry dark lager, fruit beer of dark brown colour. Rich and soft malty taste of the beer has been combined with fruity cherry, softening typical hop bitterness and giving the beer a pleasant sweet almond like aftertaste.

The best part of this 500ml bottle was its deep, dark brown coloured body and off-white head. Overwhelming aroma of thick cherry, almost like syrup. Cherry ripe taste added by candy sweetness. Flat impression. More like juice, than beer. Shared by Elisabeth and Stefan, thanks (rating session of Estonian beers in Tromsø, 27.10.2009).

Dark mahogany colour with foamy head. The sweet smell of caramel and artificial cherry fragrance gives a prewarning about what you are about to drink, and the taste is without doubt sugary and cherry flavoured. In combination with the flat carbonation it is like drinking watered down cherry sirup. A bottle will probably make you queasy. Fortunately, I shared the 500ml bottle at the Baltic Beer session in Tromsø 27.Oct.09.

(Bottle, thanks to SaintMatty) Reddish brown colour with frothy, beige head. Fruity nose with notes of cherries, dark bread and brown sugar. Malty, fruity taste with dark bread, brown sugar, almonds and cherries. Bitter-sweet finish. Medium body, fairly sweet. Quite a nice dark lager with an interesting cherry touch.

Medium offwhite head does not last. Deep dark red body with vigourous carbonation. Deep earthy cherry aroma. Dry earthy cherry and caramel taste. Mid-bodied. Dry lingering marzipan afteraste. Decent, but somewhat bland. (0.5l bottle, Hell Hunt, Tallinn.)

Bottle, 4.6%. Fat and citric cherry aroma. Clear dark brown colour, stable light brown head. There is some cherry in the flavour, a bit like prune, too. Even some sesame seed. Not sweet, the bitter kind of cherry. Different from the alcopop type cherry beers, but not a lot better.

A very strong and sweet cherry aroma in this beer which appears to be a dark lager with cherry added. I am not sure whether the cherry is artificial or not and there is no information on the label about it. The taste is fairly sweet when you first try it but becomes more mellow after a few sips. I feel that the blend of this beer is just right and the cherry aroma and taste is noticeable but not overwhelming. I am quite impressed.

Dark copper-cherry red color, small off-white head. Strong cherry aroma with light barley notes. Some harsh barley flavors but mainly cherry fruityness which is not too artifical. Semi-sweet.
