An Imperial soda sour that’s bigger, bolder and just what the Doctor ordered!

Big Fizzician combines sweet, dark, and sour cherries with creamy vanilla, hints of caramel and subtle spicy undertones.

Hazy red pour with a firm white head. Aroma is (artificia) sweet cherries. Tast is cherries, cola, a tiny hint of vanilla. It is not bad, but I wonder if you could have created the same effect with fruit rather than fruit concentrate.

On tap at Cardinal, Stavanger. Hazy deep red to purple colour, moderate off-white to pink head. Aroma of Dr. Pepper, some cherries. Moderately sour flavour of Cherry Coke with alcohol. Oh well .... could have been worse.

On tap at Cardinal, Stavanger. Pours hazy dark pinkish red with little pink head. Aroma of artificial generic fruit aroma. Tastes sweet and sour. Thin bodied, sour finish. Terrible drink, don't even think of trying it - you have been warned!

Thanks Alex Maier! Murky red colour, small pinkish head. Aroma is cherries, not actually that far from Dr. Pepper. Flavour is cherries, some sugary tones, and well, rather Dr. Peppery.

Puh, wasn't expecting that. Cherry, raspberry red, soft drink appearance, 0 head. Cherry nose with hints of strawberry and raspberry. Sour, tart but sweet taste. Very cherry but creamy, almost like a cherry milkshake. Sweet rbalances the sour. Cream soda taste from the lactose. Well balanced and interesting but too sweet to be drinkable for my tastes.

Aus der Dose im 2025-04 getrunken. Dieses rote, trübe Ale erinnert beim 1.Schluck an einen wunderbare Rote Grütze mit deutlichen Himbeer-Kirsch-Aroma mit Vanille-Soße. Großartiges flüssiges Dessert!

Can. Hazy cherry colour brew, small pale grey - pink tinted head. Smooth palate, decent fine minerally carbonation on the back end. Well, this beer has one job to do and it does it very well indeed. Smooth malt base, a modest but pleasing creamy sweetness, along with a nicely judged mild vanilla, does a great job of supporting the abundant cherry. Morello cherry, glace cherry, even a little natural cherry. Light tangy and slightly tart finish. Don't understand the stingy scores for this one. Does what it say out to do and delivers great drinkability at the Imperial 8.0% point. Wanted to chugg this.
