Clear reddish pink color, big frothy pink head. Aroma of cherries, hint of strawberry, some prune, some hop. Sugary sweet cherry taste, very fruity, slight bitter, some marzipan. Quite a lot of carbonation. Although not real cherries, it certainly reminds me of them.

Golden colour, white head. Aromas of citrus. Slighty bitter. Just an ordinary, forgettable beer.

Tap @ In de Wildeman. Only took some sips, however it was after some good smokey beers. So, taste was very weak. Slight bitter, some caramel malt.

Bottled at the Belgian Embassy in Oslo. An unclear, brown beer with a beige head. Candi-sugar, malt, some hops and spices in the aroma, but it could be more pronounced. Sweet, caramel-like flavor with some roasted notes and beefstock. Medium body with a bit stickyness. A nice beer with nothing special to it. Very quaffable. (070301)

330 ml bottle. Slightly hazy dark red body with a small brown head. Aroma is sweet malt. Flavor is rather sweet, ordinary Belgium ale with a hint of sour acidity deep, deep down there somewhere. I like the style of this beer, but believe they don’t really get it right.

Bottle. Hazy red body with a pink head. Aroma is artificial cherry. Flavor is surprisingly not as sweet as suspected. Still sweet and a lack of acidity, but drinkable in a strange and pleasant masochistic way.

Bottle. Hazy red body with a pink head. Aroma and flavor is much the same, cherry syrup. Very sweet but actually not the worst of it’s kind. Down the drain anyway.

Bottle. Hazy pale yellow body with a thin white head. Aroma is just like banana flavored chewing gum. Flavor is the same, artificial sweet banana. It’s just terrible!
