Bottle Pours a clear deep cherry red with a very large pink fluffy head that sticks around. Aromas are intense cherry, a bit over done like cherry jolly-ranchers and a slight woody, musty hint. Lots of sweet cherry flavor, again a bit forced, and candy like but quite tasty. Fairly light feel and moderately fizzy.Not quite as syrupy as the Lindemanns. A hint of tartness that almost balances it out. I’m liking this more with each sip. Very yummy.

Bottle, 37.5cl corked. Thx to the owner of 3 Små Rum, Reza. We were just about to leave the place when Reza told us to wait some more minutes as he would like to share a bottle of his favorite beer with us. I was a bit surprised when it turned out he wasn’t going to have anything for himself. A true beer lover, enthusiast and generous guy. The beer poured a slightly unclear copper body and a small, off-white head. Served a bit warm, without the temperature ruining anything. The aroma is lovely sourish and citrusy, with the alcohol showing itselves in a gentle way, and there’s also some horseblanket notes. Slightly caramel-sweet flavor, soon overpowered by a lemony sourness, and some horseblanket. Pleasantly tart, with some dark berries or dried fruits in the far back. Medium body. Lasting lemony sourness in the finish, with horseblanket and barnyard notes. A true beauty, complex, dangerously easy to drink, and really enjoying to drink. Rating: 8-4-8-4-16-4. (080709)
Bottled, 37.5cl champagne cork. (2005) Copper-colored, almost flat brew, with a small beige head. Acidic aroma with raisins, cherries, some yeast, cellar, fruits, mostly apples, and some alcohol. Lightly acidic on the flavor, with fruits, cellar, apples, prunes, sweetness and alcohol. Prickling and lightly astringent in the mouth. It has a long, fruity finish. A really lovely, tart beer with lots of different flavor and aromas. (060530)

Strong fruity and sweet aroma of raspberries, slightly artificial and perfumed with a sourish background. Sweet flavour, light to medium body, moderate carbonation. Sweet raspberry taste with a light sour note and a slightly tart but mainly sweet and fruity, malty finish (13.04.06).

Draft tulip shaped snifter at 3Floyd’s. Sweet raspberry smell, of course. Color is red-brown with smoke in appearance. A thin fizzy soda head. Taste is of raspberries, with sourness more from fruit than anything else, although I would guess at some brett. Creaminess in mouthfeel, which at first I put to wheat but just maybe the light Belgian malts. In other words, it’s a fruit beer that keeps much of its beer background instead of being some soda pop.

37.5cl bottle from Noel Cuveliers. Amber colour with thick lasting beige head. Yeasty earthy aroma and also a bit dusty. Some banana and lemon. Odd beer. I have had it before and it wasn’t as good as I remembered. Some earthy citrus on end. Bit disappointed.

On draught at The Kulminator, Antwerp during LCRBM2 This is just about my favourite drink to have at the end of a session. The sour cherry, the good malt (more so than in the bottle version), just the harmony of the fruit and sourness and alcohol and flavour. Had to finish this to get the Struise Christmas beer on.
