| Tasting: | The cranberries impart a rosy golden color to the appearance, and the yeast offers delicious banana esters peppered with the sweet and tart essence of cranberry while contributing to a soft lacy head that is expected from fine Belgian stock. The mouth-feel is titillating and the sweet tartness is followed by a plum finish. See now see, C.C. Rider, see what you have done, you made me love you woman, now your man has come. | |||||||
