Rose colored body with a tall pink cap floating ontop. Fresh red cherry, lemon, very mild funk, aroma is milder then I expected. Taste is funky with a lemon sour, sweet cherry shows up in the after taste. Drinkable but forgetable.

pours a nice vibrant red with a touch of purple, with a small pinkish head, that dissapates into a nice film that remains, nice lacing, carbonation bubbles are visible running up the glass, looks a touch effervescent. The aroma is fleshy cherry tartness, especially when the beer warms, a nice citrus/lemon sour funk aroma, a touch of musky oak, smells more rounded then the wild strawberry, smells very nice. The taste is a let down, it consists of fleshy cherry skins, and then a musky oak bite in the middle, a bit of barnyard funkiness in there as well, there is a bitterness to this, that is not all the pleasant or complimentary. The mouthfeel is medium body, medium high creamy carbonation, there is a mouth drying bitter bite that kinda throws the whole thing of kilter a bit. Not worth the price of $19.00 a bottle, at World of Beer.

Probably pricey enough to be a one timer, but it was pretty damn good. Well balanced between the sour funk aroma and fruity cherry. Beautiful ruby red pour. Tingly feel. Flavor equal parts cherry and funk with just enough stinky cheese man to notice. Plenty I fruit but no sweetness. Dry, lasting sour finish.

Bottled@Mikkeller Bar, Copenhagen. Deep red colour with a small pinkish head. Aroma is sweet and sour cherries along with some yeasty and quite earthy notes. Flavour is quite similar. More thin and lacks the samt tartness as the Spontanframboos.
