Jul 15, 2009 From the Bottle at Tom’s Ultimate Glasgow Tasting, Blackfriars 01/12/2007
Sweet cherry aroma. Red coloured smooth and creamy on the palate with a fruity cherry flavour. Crisp and dry slightly spicy finish.

Jul 13, 2009 750 mL bottle from Timer’s Beverage in Racine (purchased September 2007). Dark red pour with a small amount of carbonation. Sweet and sour cherry aroma. Wonderful tart cherry taste. Nothing but great things to say about this beer. For me, it’s perfect in every way.

Jul 10, 2009 Pinkish-red beer with little but sweet cherries in the nose. Tastes pretty sweet but with a tangy, tart terry chang. I mean cherry tang. Whatever. Intense cherry flavor, almost one-dimensionally so. Lively mouthfeel. Dessert beer. Nothing wrong with that, but a bit sweet for my blood.

Jul 9, 2009 Original review date 5/3/2008...from 750 into Riedel Extreme Burgundy/Pinot Noir glass.
Pours dark cider/caramel color with ample natural cherry hue. Carbonation cloys to bowl of glass; head very thin.
Perfumy, natural cherry essence brings the dominant scent here - slight tangy yeast and malt. Just enough citrus funk.
This is a treat - understated yet plentiful carbonation delivers a powerful cherry and natural sugar hammer with powerful force. Slight saltiness from carbonation. Nice backbone of yeast, slight citrus and braised malt.
This delivers much more of a hearty yet mellow (almost boiled? not a bad thing) mouthfeel. A slight salty tinge from the carbonation hits the back of the mouth with little aftertaste from a long and deep finish. Almost as if there’s a significant tannin profile from the cherry skins as would be expected in wine. Gets stronger and more enjoyable with warmth.
This is a pleasure to savor but drinks much easier than other offerings crafted at this level of excellence. Great stuff.
