Nice hint of sweet cherries in the aroma along with light hops and pale malt. Flavour: Same, nice subtle sweet cherry with light hops, pale malt and some grain. Decent light bitter finish. Average bodied. Enjoyable and quite quaffable.

Slightly hazy, light orange amber body with a quick foamy white head. Tart cherry mash flavour initially finishes a little sweeter. Medium thin body is astringent. Not a fan of these cherries but an interesting beer regardless.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 28, 2009 Draught. At Golden Kiwi, Cambridge, ON. Rob from Grand River was sitting next to me while I drank this ... I had questions. Poured slightly hazy light amber with a solid thick-looking creamy off-white head. Lush, soft aroma - floral bitterness, slightly sweet graininess, and sour cherries; nice! Tasted of honey, pungent rose petal, cherry - it came across as quite dry, slightly spicy, and overall very soft - it gave the impression of being quite sweet, but it really wasn’t - the sour cherry more than balanced it - frankly this seemed more floral than fruity. Soft, very airy mouthfeel, with the malt finishing quickly and the slight acidity and pungency lingering much longer - recommended, although more than a pint might be a bit much. jerc (3954), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 25, 2009 2009-10-24. Crisp yellow body with a foamy white head. 3+ Aroma is pleasant with a good does of black cherry fruit, muted pale malts underneath. 6+ Flavour is similar with pleasant black cherry overtones, light bitterness, mild pale malt base. 6+ Average plus palate. 3+ Pretty solid fruit beer. I am not a big cherry person but it worked very nicely here. On tap at the brewery
