Imperial-John (113), Mississauga, Ontario, Canada Mar 16, 2008 On tap at Beer Bistro in Toronto. From memory as I had this a few months ago. I was disappointed with the lack of flavour and body. Faint aroma of chocolate. Black with tan head. Flavour was cherry chocolate but not as intense as I was hoping, not very rich and not much body.

Deep black, with a light cherry flavor, medium sweetness, and chocolate. Very mild in flavor for a stout--light bitterness. Nice. garthicus (595), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Aug 27, 2008 Appearance: Deep black, slight pancake mix coloured head. Aroma - Cinnamon - cherry pop tart mmm. Flavour - Burnt toast, cinnamon, malt, cherry. Lovely, really nice. radiomgb (1781), Peterborough, Ontario, Canada Aug 27, 2008 Dark brown in colour with ruby edges, thin but lingering beige coloured head, good lacing. The aroma had some coffee, chocolate and a very light cherry tartness. The flavour is chocolaty, malty with a light roast, mildly bitter, some black forest cake. Lightly sweet mouthfeel, medium/light body, mild carbonation. Finishes with some burnt notes and a chocolate sweetness.<br /><br />
This was pretty good. The chocolate was definitely more prominent then the cherries.<br /><br />

Thin off-white head over a dark black body.Chocolate malt aroma / cocoa powder.
The chocolate is well done, the cherry comes in a s sourness in the finish.
Thin bodied.
O.K.? gilvanblight (360), Windsor, Ontario, Canada Jul 20, 2008 On tap at BeerBistro. Near black pour with a large rose head. Smokey scent like dark chocolat. Too Dary and too smokey, not all at sweet. My wife loved it, I really wasn’t impressed. I’m not a big fan of fruit beers though.
