Bottle at Heerlijk Mariakerke. Deep amber colour slight red tinge. Lasting thin cream head. A nicely soft Flemish Red that helps cutt through the smoked salmon and asparagus. Gives it a soir cherry edge. Good spir cherries. Not extreme but sour enough. Slight sweet on the tooth edge. I liked it. Well balanced.

Quite dark brown with thin head. Lots of sour fruity notes and a touch of cherry vinegar. Sweeter elements of malt and jammy ted fruits too. Sharper than a Duchesse but less extreme than a Verzet.

Draft pour at the The Belgian Brewers' Bash in Washington DC. Poured a relatively light ruby red color with a medium sized light tan head. Aroma was light sour, light fruit. Flavor was pleasant fruity notes, light cherry sour.

Medium pink head over deep-red burgundy coloured beer. Cherrystones, organic cyanides, cherryjuice, intense. Hint at fruitacids and -aromas. Sweet, but with bursts of red fruit and fruitacids behind. Meaty, even some hints at roast; cherry pie. Thick, almost chewy despite some light acidthinning. Oily feel, covering the mucoses long after. Sweet but excellent (even if my co-taster strongly disagrees) all the same! Txs to Stef!
