12oz bottle bonus from Flaco Alto, shared with bikesandbeer. Poured into a flute. Pours oddly dark red. with some sediment floating in it, there is also a bright white ring. Nose is cherry, unclear if oxidation has occured. Taste is sweet and tart and overall pretty, nice. Can’t complain too much about it, it isn’t the best by any means but its nice. Lingering cough syrupy feeling which isn’t too unpleasent. Pretty nice, thanks Sebastian for the opportunity.

Aug 23, 2008 Bottle shared by a generous local. Poured a pale, clear pink color with a thin off-white head that diminished to a ring. Aroma of soft, overripe cherry, sweet light malts, and some oak. Smooth, soft entry with a moderate red cherry flavor with some light yeastiness. Finishes sweet with some soft fruit. Smooth, light carbonation.

Jun 28, 2008 Thanks to eyedrinkale for bringing this one out. Deep ruddy colour. Thin white head. Aroma is quite rich and sweet. Bright cherries, some cherry pits/almondy character. Palate is quite thin, but it’s pleasant enough. Soft tartness with a light muskiness. Decent brew.

Jun 26, 2008 Bottle at Joe’s. 2004. Smells much of cherry cough syrup, with muddy chocolate in the middle. A small touch of tartness in the flavor is this beers only saving grace, as it is soon followed up with flavors of teriyaki chicken and chinese beef. Heh.

Jun 26, 2008 Bottle at JoeMcphee’s. Pours an orange amber body with an off white head. Aroma is cherries, wood, and something floral. Flavor is sweet cherries and pretty good but not sour or medicinal.

Jun 24, 2008 its a pale muddied pink with a clarity marred only by a few chunks of yeasty protein. aroma of sour cherries and pool water. well balanced and a flavor like European sour cherries jarred in juice.
