Smells of armpits in a nice way. Taste is strangely spicy, almonds, cherry. Not so sour. Fruitiness is the best bit. Doesn’t seem that complex, but it’s pretty nice.

Bottle at home. Deep ruby colour with a pinkish head. Aroma and taste are tart cherry and leathery, flavors are subtle. Medium body.

Light cherry, good attempt at a kriek style. Smooth acidity.
