I was at the local Whole Foods, saw this and thought, "Hey, a local beer I’ve never heard of." Maybe I didn’t read the bottle well enough, but I didn’t realize this was a Paper City beer and thought it was a new brewery. It poured a nice foamy top over a cloudy orange color. The aroma was spicy with some orangy notes. Fizzy mouthfeel and more orangy and spicy flavors in the taste. A very pronounced sharp hoppy aftertaste. For a "cherry beer" that had a huge cherry on the label, I didn’t smell or taste an iota of cherry anywhere in this, which I found to be very disappointing as I wanted something with a nice big cherry taste. If that’s what you’re looking for, stay away from this one. I felt like I was misled. (frowny face)

Nov 25, 2009 Floral perfumey nose, a little dusty. Soft fruit underneath maybe. Golden orange pour, big bubbled thin head. Dusty husky up front, tangy lemon, more chewy husky flavors. Not really any cherry per se but there are some fruity undertones. Somewhat quenching bitterness in the finish. An interesting beer.

Nov 20, 2009 Bomber, memorable bottle form the Dog Days of Summer bash. Poured a citrus hazy orange drink like color with small white head. Sour candy sweet with hay and yeast. Dry, odd, bitter and a bit sour which was not very enjoyable.
