A slight skim of sudsy foam floats around the top then dissipates. smell is cherry with a strong sour malt smell backing it up. Taste is cherry sours up front with a nice sweet malt finish that hold in the back of your throat. Mouthfeel is medium to full with pretty low carbonation. It really rolls over your tongue. This is a nice tasty fruit brew. nearbeer (1878), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jul 9, 2008 didn’t expect much from this beer but I was impressed. It pours with a red body topped by a thin head with little lacing. The aroma is full of sweet marichino (sp?) cherries with slight malt notes. The flavor is slightly sour yet sweet with tons of marichino(sp? again) and a hint of malt. Light bodied, smooth and dry.It’s no New Glarus,but what is? Overall good.This would be a good beer to get someone into craft brew. Crit (2409), New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 1, 2008 Bottle labeled "Cherish" purchased at State Line Liquors in Elkton, MD. Poured a deep ruby with a thin pink head into my snifter. Smells like cherry cough syrup, slightly sour. Taste is tart and wheaty, not nearly as much cherry character as I had hoped for. Finishes a little weak, no cherry or sour character remains, just wheat. Not bad. wetherel (1641), Encinitas, California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 17, 2008 I’ve seen this sitting at Tip Top restaurant next to my house for a couple of years, now I’ve decided to buy one. No date, but a code of 07KF. Initial aroma is some musty cardboard, with a huge fluffy head that settles very slowly. No cherry aroma to speak of. Deep red color. No floaties and maybe a hint of sediment. Taste is sweetish, gritty?, Sourness is very mild. Not bad, just a little past it’s prime. Woohoo, one more sour rating. This is by far the lowest I’ve rated a sour. Wouldn’t mind rerating fresh. Pastor (534), Maine, USA

Served in its proper glass ware
Poured a dark bubbly red with lots of little bubbles rising from the glass
Aromas of cherry cough drops It smelled like the box you used to sniff as a kid
Sweet cherries not too much bitter but not sticky sweet either with a light carbonation on your tongue
Very enjoyable drink I had this as a desert brew after downing a bunch of hot wings. The cherry after taste did stay with me quite a while after finishing the brew so If you are not into cherries stay away
