Feb 7, 2009 Wow, I’ve seen this beer for years, but never tried it until tonight. An amazingly unique combination of tart cherries and a rather big, roasty stout. As different as a beer that you will find, it isn’t common these days to drink a beer so original. The aroma is sour cherry and the body is opaque. A tasty after dinner beer.

Feb 7, 2009 Black pour, thin off white head. Chocolate and cherry nose, nice tart taste. Quite good when the mood strikes... Which is admittedly not too often.

Feb 7, 2009 Pours a deep brown and ruby red color. Sweet black cherry aroma, and the taste is almost overwhelming cherry flavor.

Feb 6, 2009 A beautiful ruby brown color, with a pleasant sour cherry aroma. Bottle poured with a tiny amount of head. A pleasant taste. Easily one of my favorite cherry stouts.

Feb 5, 2009 Bottle from Countryside Liquors in Clearwater, FL. Pours dark brown with a nose of chocolate malt, tart cherry, some vanilla. Flavor is similar with a tart cherry finish. Very tasty. Nice spin on a cherry beer.

Jan 25, 2009 Bottle from California Bottles. Has a decent amount of cherry in the aroma but in general the darkly roast malt play the part. Stout is a perfectly shade of dark brown with a thin layer of film. The flavor is tart with light aftertaste of sourness and taste of sugar with only moderate amount of roast malt.

Jan 25, 2009 There was just too much cherry flavor in this for me. Very tart cherry flavor that would have been better if it was a little sweeter. This stout was unfortunately one-dimensional. Nice roasty malt finish to balance it out, but the tart cherries were just too much to put this Bell’s offering in with the elite.
