What Our Editors Thought
“Cooked-fruit notes in the aroma with some darker depth—berry, cherry. Fresh fruit in the flavor with a lively herbal lift that defies its simplicity. Sweetness in the finish cuts the strong acidity.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Rich cherry notes in the body with a supporting sweetness to highlight the fruit. The tartness balances nicely and leaves an impression of fresh cherry pie.”
What the Brewers Say
“Blend of mostly one-year-old red sour ales, refermented on a mix of Balaton and Montmorency cherries.”
