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.

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.

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
