First Impression
A nice single serving sized bottle. Green glass with a champagne type cork and cage situation keeping in the goodness. Overall a quality presentation. Quite red. Made with real cherry and elderberry juice the color makes complete sense. Smells nice enough.

First Sip
Wow, almost a desert beer! Fruity and sweet tasting, seems like this one might make a compelling beer substitute for ice wine.

Halfway
Oddly refreshing. Not so unusual that it's a chore to drink at all.

Bottoms up
In spite of being very sweet for a beer, it wouldn't be out of the question to pop a few corks in the course of an evening. Consider Mort Subite Kreik a kind of a crafted cooler. Brewed, then sweetened with sugar and real fruit juice it's a pretty cool alternative to things like Smirnoff Ice and Mike's Hard Lemonade with a beer lineage.
