MBCC 2023 Copenhagen, Blue Session. Hazy bright purple red colour. Aroma and Taste of mild sourish red fruits, apples, red grapes, refreshing.
How: Bottle.
Where: MBCC 2022.
Appearance: Hazy red colour with an off-white head.

Body: Medium body and carbonation.
Flavour: Cherries, malt, tart, funk, acidic.
Cherry beer by Brasserie de la Sambre, with pale pinkish off-white, moussy, shred-lacing head and deep ruby red robe with vermillion glow. Aroma of cherry peel and cherry juice (not so much cherry flesh or cherry jam), banana peel, beetroot, white bread, soap, yoghurt. Crisp onset, lots of vivid, genuine cherry tartness, juicy but lacking a bit in full ‘fleshiness’, feeling a tad thin; minerally carb, smooth cereally core under cherry juice dominance with side aspects of green banana, red apple and beetroot. Some tannic effects of cherry skin in the finish, remaining low in hop bitterness. Feels very ‘real’ – as in: made with actual cherries, which is obviously a plus for me, with all those horrible ‘rouges’ swarming around these days. Have a point for that.
18/VI/22 - 75cl bottle @ De La Sambre Saison Festival, BB: n/a (2022-735) Thanks for sharing!
Clear ruby red beer, no head. Aroma: fruity start, some cherries, sourish impression, a bit spicy. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: a little sweet, fruity, dry, some grapes, a little bitter. Aftertaste: hoppy bitterness, spicy notes, dry finish with some tannins.
Bottle sample @ La Sambre & Friends Saison & Farmhouse Festival 2022.
Couleur pourpre, col léger rosé plutôt effervescent.
Arôme au bouquet frais fruité et fleuri sans être trop dominant, petite note rétro-nasal de grains avec les effluves fleuries qui sont bien perceptibles.
Palais sur une belle rondeur de bouche avec un sécheresse marquée - rustique dres grains; épeautre, froment et une pointe de pils. Profile barrique léger avec un apport de funk qui reste discret - le fruité de la cerise est plaisant et frais.
