Jun 20, 2009 &50 2008 vintage (1 year old). Great fruitty cherry profile on the nose. A bit of a muddy red pour (even when yeast was settled). Sweet with just a slight bit of tartness -- a bit bitter due to the hops. A bit out of balanced with the bittersweatness. The hops are n attempt to rebound the sweetness. Just a bit too sweet. MEdium body with perfect carbonation. Overall: too sweet to take down a whole 750, glad I shared this one. I can;t imagine drinking more than 6 ounces of this as a dessert beer. If you want to know a summary of this beer: your kid couldn’t tell the difference between this and his/her juice box.

Jun 16, 2009 Bottle thanks to thirdeye11. Pours a hazy/cloudy dark red, no real head. Aroma is GREAT, full of cherry and malt, some acidic. Flavor of cherry, malty, tasted just like a liquefied Mrs. Bairds cherry pie. Mouthfeel is smooth, medium body with crisp carbonation. Overall, GREAT SHIT!!

Jun 12, 2009 Bouteille verte de 750 ml, rapportée du Wisconsin par Dany. Arômes très intenses de cerises sûres. Robe rouge et claire, légère mousse rosée. En bouche, les cerises sûres sont omniprésentes et naturelles. Heureusement la bière demeure relativement peu sucrée et possède un corps souple. Finale sûre et légèrement acide. Intéressant, mais les cerises dominent et écrasent totalement les autres saveurs.

Jun 11, 2009 Bottle with thanks to dalzale. Pour is a deep brown that is almost red, but not quite. Head is a thin layer of tiny bubbles that are as pink as they are tan. Aromas are heavily cherries... at times they come across as sweet, at times they seem tart, but they are undeniable and I can’t pick out much else. Flavor is similar, the cherry presence is almost like pie filling in that it is simultaneously sweet and tart. This is very good stuff, but it is pretty unidimensional.

Aroma: Cherry pie filling, including some cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves.
Taste: Sweet and sour cherries, brown sugar, cloves and spices.
Mouthfeel: Is perfect a mouthfeel descriptor?
Overall: Mind blowing.
