Oh that is freakin awesome... 20 percentile hahaha. Sample at Glunz tasting. I want to preface this rating by saying that this beer seems to accomplish what it set out to do in a very familiar way: this beer is those Chocolate-covered Cherry Cordials in a bottle... nuff said

Hazy, pale brown color with a firm, good sized head that thinned out nicely to release the aroma.Aroma of milk chocolate and tart cherries with a touch of wheat spice. Flavor is creamy chocolate malt and fruity sweetness. Full bodied and creamy with soft carbonation and a quick, slightly bitter finish. It’s a bit gimmicky but I found myself liking this beer.

Strong aroma of chocolate and a hint of cherry cordial. Kind of watery though and the cherry comes across as artificial and candy like. Hard to want to have a second one. Weak finish. I’m a fan of O’Fallon’s brews especially their Blackberry Scottish Ale and Smoked Porter but a beer that tastes like it was brewed by Whitman Samplers is just not my thing.

Light, murky brown with a weak, fizzy beige head / Big nose of cherry chocolate bon bons / Light body, just a touch of sweetness, fizzy carbonation and slightly watery, with fair finish / Restrained, but somewhat artificial candy-like flavors of milk chocolate and cherry syrup / Pleasant, but closer to a soda pop than a beer.

12 oz. bottle from The Party Source. Pours a cloudy brown color with a lot of floating sediments and a small beige head. Aroma of milk chocolate and maraschino cherries, like a chocolate covered cherry from a Russel Stover box with a bite taken out of it. The flavor is a weaker version of the nose, with some nuttiness. The problem with this one is that it has such an artificial quality to it; other beers have used chocolate and cherries much more naturally. Light-medium bodied and sweet, with a grainy mouthfeel.

Bottle. Pours a clear light brown with a medium tan head. Sweet cherry aroma with a bit of chocolate. Chocolate comes out first in the flavor, followed by a cherry sweetness and a nutty finish. Not subtle on the sweetness, like a chocolate covered cherry. Still drinkable though.

Poured brown with reddish hue and tan head aromas of chocolate covered cherries taste is of the same don’t bother sounds much better than it is

Pours very dark brown with a big off white head that subsides quickly, smell is chocolate and cherry, like a cherry cordial. Flavor is lots of chocolate, with hints of cherry. It’s ok.
