Nose
Tart cherries, very tart. Not much sweetness. Hints of lemon lime soda very light and effervescent. Light intensity. Decent, nothing really stands out.
Palate
The tart cherries agin but this time with more sweetness. Light and effervescent again with the lemon lime soda. Medium bodied and delicate. Texture is the low point. Has some significant roughness that really brings it down.
Finish
Medium and kind of odd like bone dry sprite. Like how I imagine sprite is like before they add sugar.
Rating: 4
Overall
Is mostly decent but the texture really brings it down. Recommend Schladerer or other major brands before this .
