This is the latest addition to the Achouffe Brewery... The aroma of Cherry CHOUFFE gives pride of place to cherries. It also reveals notes of strawberry, almond, spices and sweet Port. Round-bodied, soft and delicate, Cherry CHOUFFE delights the gourmands among us. It has a satisfying finish, with a very slight bitterness.

33cl bottle from my local Waitrose. A tawny brown pour with a cherry red gleam and a fast fading beige head; medicinal cherry aroma; sweet in the mouth with strawberry and almond as well as cherry flavours; then a thin syrupy finish. A bit of a disappointment.

Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is huge artificial cherry syrup, cherry jam and cherry candy. A metallic touch in the finish. Flavour is quite sugary syrupy sweet, liquid candy. Body is medium. I was hoping for something akin to beer and a little more balanced from d'Achouffe, I severely dislike this artificial sugary concoction. Sorry.

Варка 2020. Аромат очень крутой. Сразу спелая вишня, при этом сильные нотки от косточки, немного компотных ассоциаций, сок вишневый прям. Цвет не яркий, темно красный скорее. Пенка при налитие свистела, но не большая. Вкус тоже на уровне и весьма сбалансированный. СРазу вишня спелая снова, без химозы. При глотке сладость весьма большая, немного горчинки и сухости на языке от сока вишни. При послевкусие уже больше косточки. Может появиться алкоголь, но мимолетно, в целом хорошо.

Fat @ Mackinlays Inn. Industriklrsbär och choklad. Den höga alkoholen bidrar med balans. Parfymerad men kul och god

330ml bottle. Pours a clear cherry red with beige head. Aroma of sweet fruity cherries and hint of marzipan. Taste has a prominent cherry flavour, with a semi dark malt, cherry liquor in the finish - not particularly boozy but sweet, moderately tart and light cloying character. Medium+ bodied, quite tasty, somewhat one dimensional.

Pours light brown with reddish hues, looks almost dense. Medium sized off-white, slightest pinkish head, quite compact; good enough retention, little lacing. Average intensity in a soft-feeling aroma: half dough-like half sugary base (kinda reminds of marzipan) with a sweet cherry note. Clean and simple. Taste notes follow the aroma closely, cherries a bit more prominent, maybe a citric hint. Perfectly hidden alcohol. Obviously edging towards sweetness, but not as much expected; a bit more on the sweet side in the mouth, still a bit of sweet reminiscence in finish/aftertaste but dry enough and clean. Medium bodied, average carbonation (quite fine/small sized bubbled carbo, especially for a belgian ale), feels slightly soft and pretty drinkable for the abv. Overall: not something exciting i guess, i don't think i would look for it again in the future, but pretty enjoyable.

Tapster: pours red with small head. Aroma is loads of cherry syrup. Taste is syrupy but not as sweet as one would expect from nose. Beer shines through. If only a little.
