330ml bottle. Cloudy, orange, faint golden colour with small, frothy, half-way lasting, white head. Slightly artificial, sugary, fruity and slightly yeasty spicy, minimally bready, wheaty malty aroma, restricted hints of peach. Taste is sugary sweet and slightly artificial fruity, notes of peach, peach flavoured jelly bears, a touch of citric acid, light hoppy overtones. Dissolved sugar enriched, watery texture with a slimy strand, dry palate, medium, prickly carbonation. Sweet and artificial - in a perverted way not too bad.

Bottle at home, dark red colour like the soda cassis. Aroma is sweet, black currant, sweeteners, and like the soda cassis. Taste is sweet, black currants, sweeteners, sucralose and like a zero sugar soda cassis... this is like a zero sugar cassis with no hint of beer yet it contains 3% alcohol... really weird that they could pull this off...

Bottle found at local appie. Pink/light red beer, small head. Aroma is artificial strawberry, candy, sweet, fruit, (artificial)sweetners. Really why do you need to add sucralose to a beer? Taste is the same, strawberry, sweetners, strawberry bubbelgum, sweet, long bubblegum aftertaste with a sticky sucralose sweetness. Why?

0.33 l bottle from 'Drankgigant.nl', best before May 2023. Hazy, dark ruby with a large, dense, stable, light purple head. Sweetish, quite fruity, a little artificial aroma of cassis, sherbet powder and light elderberry. Quite sweet, rather fruity, slightly artificial taste of cassis, dark cherry, elderberry and some sherbet powder, followed by a short, hardly bitter, sticky-sweet finish. Medium body, very smooth and gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Okay fruit beer, just way too sweet with nothing balancing the sweetness.
