Bottle from a local supermarket. Aroma is tart and sweetish cherry with soft woody notes and a touch of funk. Flavour is tart and mild sour with some sweetness as well. Medium body. More nuanced than I expected.

Draft at café Moortgat Arnhem, on an evening with nice beers and good company. Didn't take notes, so this is what I remember: Malty, hoppy backbone. Herbal notes, hints of butter. Mwah.
