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.

Jun 9, 2009 Appearance: Pours a dull dark red with a pin stripe of bubbles.
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.

May 28, 2009 Bottle from trade with Monger. Big thanks, James! The nose is quite nice and the hops balance nicely. Color is an appealing glossy blood red with purple head. Flavor opens with cherry pie cherries and closes with a woody grain and fruit skin sensation.

May 25, 2009 Finally found a couple of bottles of this and they were worth the wait! Intense, fruity aroma. Pours a nice coppery-red color with a significant carbonated head that quickly dies down. Sweet flavor of cherry that never gets too cloying or overdone. There’s just a hint of hops and grain in the background. Easily the best fruit beer I’ve tried and probably the best beer New Glarus is currently producing.
