Squatters Cherry Luv

Brewed by Salt Lake Brewing Company / Squatters Pub
Style: Fruit Beer
Salt Lake City, Utah USA

1. From the Jug at the GABF, Colorado Convention Center 01/10/2005 Amber fruity cherry with a slightly dry malt finish. 2. From the Jug at the GABF, Colorado Convention Center 11/10/2007 Very strong fruit aroma. Bronze coloured and sour with a crisp and slightly bitter lasting finish.

Draft at Brewpub 1/19/09 pours a dark crimson with a small ring for a head. Aroma of cherries and cough syrup. Cherry, banana, and clove come out in the flavors. This light bodied brew is a big mix of flavors so I’m not sure what style they are going for.

On tap at the brewpub in Salt Lake City, Utah. I’ve waited for this beer for some time, unfortunately this beer seems to change a good bit from year to year. I was told by the brewer that past batches were much more sour, and also this version was not barrel aged. Anyway, it was nice to try since it is not made that often. Pours a dark reddish color with a medium white head. The aroma is very light; some sweet malts and cherries. The taste was more of a fruit beer than a sour; sweet malts, tart cherries, a slightly sour finish. Lots of malts and not funky or sour at all really. Nice though. An interesting beer.
