Mad Scientist Cherry Red Risalamande Canned Beer 44 cl 5.1%
Mad Scientist Cherry Red Risalamande is a fruity and dessert-inspired pastry sour at 5.1%, brewed as a tribute to the classic Danish risalamande – here reimagined as a smoothie-style beer with cherry and blackcurrant.
This Hungarian canned beer from Mad Scientist is brewed with a focus on sweetness, acidity, and a creamy mouthfeel. It contains cherry purée, blackcurrant concentrate, lactose, and natural flavorings, resulting in an intense berry profile with soft vanilla notes and a gentle tart edge. The result is a beer that resembles a liquid dessert – rich, fresh, and playful.
The flavor opens with sweet cherries and dark berries, followed by mild acidity and a rounded sweetness from the lactose. The texture is soft and almost milkshake-like, and the aroma offers hints of vanilla, cream, and fresh berries. The color is deep red with a light pink foam, and the beer is unfiltered to preserve its natural texture.
Cherry Red Risalamande is ideal as a finishing touch to a meal, either as a dessert on its own or paired with chocolate cake, risalamande, or fresh berries. It also suits those who enjoy creative and playful beers with clear inspiration from the sweet kitchen.
