Deep mahogany red/brown, no head. Strong cherry aroma. Sour, tart, lots of dark cherries, kocks you in the face a bit, in a good way. Some sweetness to balance the sourness out. Much more in your face than the belgs, but good stuff.

2009 corked bottle, 7.3% ABV. Purple color, cloudy, no head. Dusty cellar-like aroma with marzipan and cherry. Very sour, somewhat lactic flavor with oak, cherry pie, lemon and cherry pits, Complex and very tasty kriek.

Tart cherries all the way down. I opened this too warm (bottle says 40F, whaaaat), vacuumed it and stuck it back in the freezer. Now it's ready. Nice and crispy tart cherries, I was spoiled earlier and I know some funky love is coming when it warms up

Woooo, Cascade! I just love their interpretation of the style, so much sourness and cherries. Amazingly juicy, heavy sour, bunch of wood and a hint of wine.
