The aroma is a strange mix of cherry syrup, yeast, cleaning product. Horrible flavor, burnt malt and soap, very dry, with a touch of cherries. The final too is horrible, burnt malt only. I couldn’t drink even half of my glass… argo0 (7011), Washington DC, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Oct 11, 2004 GABF 2004: Dark opaque body has a dark tan head. Interesting cherry soy sauce aroma. Has some mild cherry tartness, but is lightly roasted and overall pretty bland. Could use a fuller flavor and thicker body, with more of a fruity balance. Still, a novel idea. ¾ (5009), Boulder, Colorado, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Sep 29, 2003 Overwhelmingly sweet black cherries in the aroma. It's quite nice though. Deep, deep red/brown hue. Flavor is disappointing, basically because this should not taste like a black cherry soda. If the black cherry flavors were more subtle, I think I would enjoy it more. It's just too much, and the expected and desired stout characteristics are sacrificed. Ultimately too thin and too much cherries. I appreciate the effort, though. BückDich (4857), McCall, Idaho, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Oct 9, 2004 Sampled draught at Main Street Station, Las Vegas Black, tan head. Nose of fresh cherries & spice. Tastes roasty before the cherry hits with a light tannic dry note with a sweet tail from the cherry. Dusty finish, decent cherry stouts but lacks the body & finish that this style deserves.
