Feb 6, 2009 A beautiful ruby brown color, with a pleasant sour cherry aroma. Bottle poured with a tiny amount of head. A pleasant taste. Easily one of my favorite cherry stouts.

Feb 5, 2009 Bottle from Countryside Liquors in Clearwater, FL. Pours dark brown with a nose of chocolate malt, tart cherry, some vanilla. Flavor is similar with a tart cherry finish. Very tasty. Nice spin on a cherry beer.

Jan 25, 2009 Bottle from California Bottles. Has a decent amount of cherry in the aroma but in general the darkly roast malt play the part. Stout is a perfectly shade of dark brown with a thin layer of film. The flavor is tart with light aftertaste of sourness and taste of sugar with only moderate amount of roast malt.

Jan 25, 2009 There was just too much cherry flavor in this for me. Very tart cherry flavor that would have been better if it was a little sweeter. This stout was unfortunately one-dimensional. Nice roasty malt finish to balance it out, but the tart cherries were just too much to put this Bell’s offering in with the elite.

Jan 23, 2009 Beautiful, silky black with a brown sugar head. Sweet, cherry cola aroma. Surprisingly sour. Its tartness a bit overwhelming for the dark malts. A contradiction that could work with a nice chocolate finish.

Jan 23, 2009 The cherry flavor was pretty strong, and there was a hint of roast once you got past the cherry. It was a bit too sweet for my tastes.

Jan 21, 2009 Bottle, batch 8730 (9/16/08). Pours black with a small dark tan head that fades quickly. Aroma of rich roasted malt, slight roasted nuts/coffee, and bitter chocolate. Flavor is initially quite sweet with sour cherry notes. Roasty finish. Flavor is a touch medicinal, especially as you continue to drink. Solid malt backbone though. Pretty good stout but gets a little tart/medicinal at times.
