Clear dark red colour with no head. Aroma has a lot of cherry but the flavour quickly switches to raspberry which is a good thing. Fresh and tangy fruity finish.

Damn backlog, could've been first! :p
Very cloudy deep ruby purple to bordeaux beer, small creamy white head, little stable, non adhesive. Aroma: super fruity, lots of red berries, strawberry flavoured candy, some rotten fruits, overripe banana, bit chemical, sweetish impression. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: very fruity start, lots of sour cherries, some strawberry, super acidic, vinegar notes. Aftertaste: very fruity, acid burning the throat, little bitter, some almonds.
