Jun 2, 2003 I definately enjoyed this brew. Although maybe it is better described as a fruit beer or speciatly beer. Black in color with a nice one inch head. Aroma is mostly black cherry, tart and sweet. The flavor is all black cherry with a good bitternesss to it. It is the black cherry dominance that I really enjoyed. The flavor and aroma improve as it warms. I sampled a pint but I will definately get the larger size next time, and make more extensive notes.

Feb 7, 2006 Very Berry Cherry Nice flavor balance with the malt and fruit. A TAD light but better to drink more when playing black jack. Medium Body with a nice finish

Oct 7, 2002 GABF 2002: Deep dark sweet cherry aroma. Almost black showing red in color. Strong coffee and roasted flavors, only a hint of cherry. A little on the light side.

Oct 2, 2006 GABF 2006. The beer pours to a dark black body with a dark brown head. The aroma is deep dark black cherries. The flavor is sweet cherry juice and charcoal dry black malt. Sort of fake, but still good. Moderate palate.

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.
