Brasserie d’Achouffe Chouffe Cherry – Fruit / Vegetable Beer at 8% ABV

Brasserie d’Achouffe Chouffe Cherry – Fruit / Vegetable Beer at 8% ABV (C$7.35 at Collective, 330 ml, best before 30-Sep-2026, acquired 13-Nov-2025, reviewed 13-Nov-2025)

Appearance: clear deep cola red with one finger of fine ivory head diminishing gradually to a thin skim, moderate soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: sweet cherry, hint almond. (7/10) Taste: high sweet, moderate tart, low bitter. (6/10) Palate: medium body, moderate-lively carbonation, sweet slightly sticky finish. (3/5)

This is a full-frontal assault of sweet cherry, and not much else. I bought it mostly because it’s been ages since I had a Houblon Chouffe, or for that matter any true Belgian, but it’s a bit of a disappointment compared to their real beers because it’s so very sweet. I dunno, others apparently like this, but for me it’s just too one-dimensional. (14/20)

This will be my 6,257th unique Untappd check-in.
