About this product
This delicious, rich cherry beer is a beautiful blend of Kasteel’s celebrated quadruple-style beer Donker and cherry liqueur. The cherries as a deep, dark fruitiness to the beer tempered by the chocolate and peppery spice of the Donker. It’s a complex but easy-drinking beer that makes a great aperitif and digestif.

    Exquisite stuff
    Quality

    Experienced this repeatedly on a recent trip to Bruges and is now one of my favourite beers ever. While not for everyone due to its slightly sweet taste (expected with cherry liquor added) it is absolutely the best of its kind when it comes to fruit beer. Will be buying this on repeat going forwards. Price on Beer Merchants is spot on too when buying in multiples, and packaging/delivery couldn’t be better. Don’t make the same mistake that I did and buy from certain supermarkets, as this is the 7% version and not the proper 8% nectar sold here.
  8. The best cherry beer
    Quality

    There is no alternative for this product. So hard to get in UK! Thanks beermerchants for supply????
  9. Nice treat
    Quality

    Love this beer immensely. Not something I would drink all night long, but I like to have one as a treat. You can tell the beer is dark and strong, but the cherry really lifts the flavour. A winner for me for sure!

    Arrived extremely well packaged and quickly. Will definitely use again! Thank you
  11. Passable cherry beer
    Quality

    I drank this alongside a bottle of Cherry Chouffe and concluded the latter was marginally nicer. I think both are inferior to Delirium Red, but I wouldn't NOT recommend it. I'll continue to buy Kasteel's cherry Bacchus but I'm not so sure if I'll buy this again
  12. Prompt delivery

    If you are a fruit beer lover this is a premium product. Worth the price. Love it

    Not for you, you wouldn't like it!
    Quality

    This is awful beer, please do yourself a favour and avoid buying it. It is only out of the goodness of my heart that I have bought 24 bottles just to help Beer Merchants shift the liability of this stock... Ah hmm. ;-)
  15. One of my favourites!
    Quality

    Incredibly easy to drink and overall delicious, especially if you like kriek but on the more full-bodied side.
  16. Verified Buyer

    Amazing Kriek!
    Quality

    Slightly sour and not oversweet, this cherry beer is particularly well balanced. My favourite kriek so far!
  17. A framboise in all but name
    Quality

    In my youth I used to drink a lot of framboise and this Rouge beer reminds me of them. It is very sweet and very red, has added sugar, added sweetener, cherries and cherry flavour! I have enjoyed other Van Honsebrouck beers in the past and will try some of them again - but probably not this one, it's too much of an acquired taste. If you enjoy framboise try this beer, you won't be disappointed. It doesn't taste like an 8% beer; probably the strength of the beer is masked by its sweetness, spice and cherry flavour.

    Great Beer from Van Honsebrouck Brewery
    Quality

    Definitely this beer is worth recommending. Better then "BACCHUS". I suggest to put your "Kasteel" glass in a freezer for few minutes. Before you drink one make sure you have another one spare...
  19. Best beer
    Quality

    Best beer I have ever tasted! A real surprise… the cherry flavor comes through well
  20. Great beer
