Sep 22, 2008 Red/pink tinged orange, very light head formation. Nutty roastiness, heavy breadiness with milk chocolate and cherry fruitiness. Sour initial flavor, dark bread, bland with little fruitiness evident. Almost nonexistent bitterness. Not a strong effort.

Sep 22, 2008 12 oz bottle included in the Folly 12 pack.
Nice light blend of mild cherry with a brown ale. Interesting beer,
Can’t taste the ABV.
I’m sure this would taste better on tap. Alas, it’s not as good as I was hoping for. But it’s still pretty interesting.

Sep 20, 2008 Bottle: Lots of earthy and maltiness up front, maybe a hint of artificial cherry. Had a bit of a stale bread element. Nose was fairly stale of malt too. Too bad, I had hoped for more.

Sep 20, 2008 Bottle from Lee’s. This beer is the weak sauce. Essentially a cherry brown, but with a really unexciting brown.

Sep 20, 2008 Draft at New Belgium. Clear medium dark red/purple colored body with a white head. Good lacing. Flavor is aged and mild dried plum slices, some doughy, dry hops, a small bite that builds over time, noticed most in mid-palate... but there’s just this terrible manure smell that is wafting out of the glass, very earthy, heavy with soil and manure, difficult to get past. Flavor is cracker barley grains and mild, dried plums and apricots. Thankfully not sweet, but the smell ruins what would have otherwise been a decent beer.

Sep 15, 2008 (Bottle) Pours an amber color with a small white head. Sweet aroma of bready malts and light caramel. Taste is rather malt based, with the only cherry hints coming towards the finish. Not as sweet as I anticipated, which was good. Somewhat tart towards the end. Not bad at all, but not quite as good as I had hoped. Was surprised to see a 6.5% ABV... was thinking more along the lines of 4-5%.
