3.8 8th November 2022 Clear cherry red amber beer, good but short lived pink head. Light and semi dry palate, decent fine carbonation. Nice cherry, not too sour thanks to some oak barrel vanilla. The sourness of the base beer seems tamed here, just a touch of aceticness on the dry finish. Nice cherry beer then, tres drinkable.

4.1 clear ruby colour, moderate sized dense beige-ish head; aroma of sour cherry juice,some balsamic and citric acidy, some acetone and Belgian yeasty-barnyard notes; taste of sour cherry, tart, some citric acidy, minimal acetone and woody notes; really good one

4.2 I’m not a fan of the original one per se, but this one is a creative spin off. Kudos!

3.4 Butelka. Ciemny, rubinowy kolor z różową pianą. W smaku i zapachu dominują nuty wiśni. Lekki kompot. Lekkie octowe akcenty. Wysycenie umiarkowane. Dość przyjemne

3.8 Cette Duchesse Cherry se tient tant par ses arômes que par son équilibre. Et sans être exceptionnelle, pour le style, cela se tient et se boit. Le visuel est sur une robe rosée limpide, une fine effervescence et une mousse brun rosé d'un cm. Le nez est relativement acide sur la cerise, le vinaigre, le candy et un léger côté boisé (bière murie en fut de chêne). En bouche, c'est relativement acide, mais cela reste acceptable et donne une bonne vivacité à l'ensemble. La cerise est plutôt bien mise en valeur avec un sucre contrebalançant quelque peu l'acidité. La corpulence est moyenne tout comme la longueur. Passable.

3.9 Bevuta in bottiglia. Birra dal bel aspetto rosso. Buoni profumo di ciliegia. Giusta acidità. Nel complesso molto buona.

3.8 Wygląd: kolor wiśniowy, rubinowy, piana spora, niezbyt trwała. Zapach: wiśnie, dzikie drożdże. Smak: wyraźnie kwaśne, lekko słodkawe, goryczka śladowa, wyraźna dzikość i wiśnie.

4.3 --Sample, thanks oh6gdx! -- Clear burgundy colour, small head. Oaky, balsamic chery aroma. Tart with medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Concentrated vinegary balsamic cherry, vinous oak. Complex and balanced. Excellent!

4.2 bottle that pours almost clear and medium dark red with a nciely reviving very light pink head offering good enough retention and lacing. sweet cherries, the pulpy black ones, and in a very jammy way, unmistakeable flanders' foeders and flora, for instance integrated acetic acid, fun spicy cherriness, lightly browned maltiness, no cara, stewed strawberry maltiness. moderate carbonation, light body, sweet (but cloying) fruity-woodsy finish. def for the sweeter tooth but super fun cherry flanders' - pretty solid in fact, and as fun as OG.

3.6 Fles thuis geprobeerd met LiekevdV. Het is een helder rood bier met een dun schuim. Het aroma is kersenachtig. De smaak is vol, fruitig, kersen. Erg wrang mondgevoel. Maar een lekkere kersen afdronk.

3.8 Bottle from Beers of Europe. Pours clear dark red with no real head. Quite high carbonation. Aromas of sour cherry, wood, red wine. Taste is more of the same. Clean sour finish.

3.8 Pours syrup brown with slightly tan, pale head. Aroma is cherry (duh) and balsamico. flavour is cherry, medium sour, medium sweet.

3.7 Be io vi dico che questa flemish con aggiunta di ciliegie, non mi aspettavo tanto. Invece ottima davvero, ho finito un ottima cena con essa, e mi ha decisamente appagato...

4.3 Achetée en Belgique, bue ce samedi soir de canicule. Vraiment bonne cette duchesse cherry, même un peu meilleure que la duchesse normale. En effet le fruité et l'acidité du fruit rend l'ensemble moins sucré

3.9 Bottle from HoTM or somewhere similar. It pours clear deep ruby with a decent frothy off - white head. The aroma is sweet - sour, juicy, tangy, tart, ripe cherry, fizzy cherry cola bottles, red wine, cherryade and strawberries with a splash of balsamic vinegar. The taste is crisp, dry, tart, puckering, vinous, bright sherbet vibes, sour candy, fizzy cherry cola bottles, ripe cherry, nip of acidity, cranberry, cherryade, quite crunchy, juicy and just a touch of woody tannins with a smooth tangy red fruits finish. Medium body and fine, prickly. Exceeded expectations for sure. If you like fizzy cherry cola bottles like me you will enjoy this. Fun.

4.0 W zapachu wiśnie, owoce (maliny?), beczka, lekki ocet. Ładny, rubinowy kolor, klarowne, piany raczej mało. W smaku wytrawne, kwaskowate, mocno akcentowane wiśnie, lekko wyczuwalny ocet. Na finiszu lekko gorzkie. Bardzo dobre

3.7 Bottle from Eltham Wines. Deep red coloured pour,swiftly dissipating head. Nose is red cherries, cranberries, strawberry jam. Taste is cherrydrops, strawberry sherbet, cranberries, oak, touch of toffee apple. Very dry. Sweet cherry mouthfeel with a lightly tart backbone. Pleasant.

4.0 Pours reddish brown with aroma of cherry, oak, and vinegar. Tart cherry flavor with notes of wood , and red wine. Very nice!

3.9 Aroma is fruit/cherries and dark fruit/slightly musty. The flavor is fruit/cherries, malts and a very tart/sweet/slight sugar finish.

4.0 Colore rosso con riflessi rubino, schiuma media compatta poco persistente. Al naso note vinose e balsamiche. Al palato ciliegia, legno, si sente l'acidità. Il gusto è decisamente dolce, il finale è secco. Una birra ben bilancoata dove le note balsamiche sono nascoste dal dolce delle ciliegie, l'alcol è ben nascosto.

3.8 Botella de 33 cl. Color marrón con destellos granates. Espuma efervescente rosácea que se disipa enseguida. Aromas a cerezas, caramelo, madera, ciruelas, pasas y vinagre. Sabor con cierto equilibrio entre el dulzor y el acético. Al principio del trago un punto dulzón de las cerezas y frutos rojos, después más ácida (vinagre balsámico) y amarga. Notas también a madera y frutos secos, final astringente.
