Hard to rate a beer like this past its prime. Most of the fruit was gone and the cork took over... some interesting last vestiges of something that might have been good at some time. Points for the adventure. Thanks, Todd.

Thanks to Todd for coming through with a rarity older than some of the Crew!. Vintage 1981. Gross looking cork. Muddy flat pour. Aroma is dank, musty, old sponge. Funky,cardboard, cork, really weird old fruit taste and definitely gamey as stated by Jason

Hazy red with a reddish head. A aroma of sweet cherry, sour hints and sweet notes. A flavor with cherry notes - tastes more like candy than fruit.

Garnet body under a slight rosé head. Tart cherries and some malt in the nose. Medium body with nice fizziness. The flavor was tart cherries but not so pleasing.

This was not the best of cherry beers, but try it if you like the style. If you are a little more wary, pass it up for something a little better.

Danke an den Doppelbock fürs Teilen. Abgestumpft saurer Geruch, nicht frisch wirkend. Unscheinbar saurer Antrunk, der schnell abflacht und ein künstliches ekelhaftes Werk zurücklässt, es wirk alt und verkorkt, sowas will ich nie wieder trinken müssen! Test vom 30.5.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 11,8,7,3,-,6 - 6,52
