Cherry and bourbon. Some florals, plum. Pours hazy maroon without much head. Sweet and tangy finish, some malt there. Decent balance but not sure I'd rate this higher than some of their better Belgians.

2025 bottle from Livonia Liquor. Pours a pink, ruby hue with a finger of white foam that lingers. Strawberry focused nose with vanilla, and cakey notes on the nose and palate. More of the same on the palate. Quite enjoyable, but defiinitely leans on the sweet side.
