No head; still, opaque cherry-red beer. Very aromatic, toilet perfumes, sharp cherry notes, ginger, galanga root. Again soapy rootspices, but not as unsettling as in the nose. Ginger, vermouth rosso wine, grapeskins. Oh, and some cherries. Light acidthinning & -burn; bit oily feel. Strange I find that it's obviously pure fruit maceration, yet there are quite seriously spicy flavours.
