| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 1, 2009 Pours a hazy golden orange color with a thick 1.5 finger frothy off-white head with good retention slowly fading into a lasting ring. Minimal lacing.
Very fruity cherry aroma with some slight earthy oak tartness. Slight crisp fruit and strong alcohol presence.
Earthy oak flavor with a decnt amount of vanilla and a lot of sweet cherry and cherry juice flavor. Hints of candy sugar and subtle bitter hops. Pretty carbonated up front with sour oak and cherry sweetness. Hoppy bitter dry and slightly sour finish.

| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Oct 29, 2009 Bottled. Aroma has cherries, citrus, marzipan and some yeast. Bit hazy, golden coloured beer with an off-white head. The taste was sweet, was a bit citric and has the marzipan cherries again. Medium bodied beer. Not my thing. nick76 (2667), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Oct 26, 2009 The appearance is golden with a slight orange tint to it. The head is average for the style. The aroma is chemical with burnt plastic and yeast. There is some malt and a bit of cherries. The taste is like the aroma. The palate is smooth but nothing special. Overall this beer is hardly better than an average beer. Goodgrief (1152), Middletown, Delaware, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 18, 2009 Not as bad as some notice as the cherry flavor was somewhat subdued. The underlying saison was not horrible. The cherry flavoring, while not overwhelming, was kinda artificial in taste. Good, but no need to seek out, really. JoeTheYounger (266), California, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 13, 2009 Bottle from some random dude at Lost Abbey (pre-stone 143th anniversary party). I was kinda wasted but trying to remember. It was a golden clear color with small head. Flavor was mildly sweet from the cherries with a dry finish. I thought it was very enjoyable.
