Liefmans has been brewing in Belgium since 1679. They use a variety of traditional Belgian processes such as fermenting in open vessels and blending young and old beers to create blends. This fruit beer is made with 15% real fruit and matured on cherries imparting the strong cherry smell and taste.
It has a very red colour with a pink frothy head. It really has the appearance of a red cream soda.
It smells very strongly of fruit, you can pick out the cherry, strawberry and raspberry quite easily and has a hint of maltiness coming through as well.
It starts of with the blend of fruits and the malyt mingling like a malty fruit punch, which fades pretty quickly to a cherry finish.
It drinks like a soda far more than like a beer.
This is a really nice and refreshing fruit beer, great for a dessert with a low alcohol content (4.2% ABV) so it's not as big of worry of over drinking.
