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.

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.

Deep red color with lasting foam, cherry aroma. Sweet and tart cherry flavor with a mild alcohol kick. Nice for a sweet change of pace.
