Review and Tasting

Sampled on 13/08/2012

Appearance:

(sample best before Jul-14) Clear but almost opaque, dark cherry red with one finger pinkish head which settles to surface foam and a thick ring around the glass. Heavy lacing.

Aroma:

Pungent ripe raspberries and cherries with vanilla.

Taste:

Sweet and yet slightly tart raspberry and cherry with very ripe strawberry, – somewhat reminiscent of adult cherryade. Not of sweet vanilla ice-cream.

Aftertaste:

Slightly tart cherries and sweet ripe raspberries with cream-of-soda vanilla.
