old notes...winter beer fest in gr mich, 2010..orange body with wispy white head..aroma and flavor of simple cherry syrup and some wheat...stupid name

Draft at MIBG Summer festival during RBSG 10. Pours a slightly murky amber with a pinkish white head. Nose is cherry cough drops and some bread, not much else. Taste is simplistic. Artificial cherry and wheat. Meh.

Had on tap at the Crawfish Boil. A-pours an amber color with red edges and an off white head. S-the nose brings pale malts, some tart cherry, and lots of unpleasant metallic aromas. T-light acetic acid, pale malts, cherries and slighlty tart finish. not a lot happening here and the flavors are rather mild and subdued. M-smooth, soft medium body with a low amount of carbonation but enough that it doesn’t fall off, creamy finish with a hint of driness. D-pretty straight forward and that grainy pale malt flavor seems to be slightly off in the beer. I’m not a huge fan.

5th Annual MBG Winter Beer Festival, Grand Rapids. Slightly hazy, orange body, thin off-white head. Cherry nose. Light, delicate cherry body, with some grassiness.
