Cletus (5002), Connecticut, USA Nov 1, 2009 Pours amber with a white head. Smells of cherries, some caramel. Tastes of sweet cherries and molasses. BuckeyeBoy (1645), Boise, Idaho, USA Oct 21, 2009 Bottle Pours out a ripe peach skin pink topped with a white head. Aroma was of cherry candy and light malts. Taste was more of the sweet cherries and a light bitterness on the end. sebletitje (1880), Tampa, Florida, USA Oct 10, 2009 pours copper/orange, white head.
Aroma of cherry juice, light caramel and malts.
Flavor, sparkly mouthfeel with fruits that reminds me of cherry juice, light hints of sweetness along the lines of a wine cooler. Some hints of malts with some lingering bitter fruits in the finish. BrewDad (2363), Olympia, Washington, USA Sep 19, 2009 12oz Bottle – Gravity Beer Market – Olympia, WA
Aroma: Light with fruit aroma and light malt and hops.
Appearance: Golden yellow in color, clear with a light head.
Flavor: Light flavor with very little fruit flavor. Just a little would have been nice.
Palate: Dry Finish, with a not much Mouthfeel.
Overall: This was a weak beer and the fruit flavor was missing. Opps.
revans (35), Salem, Ohio, USA Sep 17, 2009 12 oz. bottle and draught. Very disappointing. Not much black cherry flavor although the aroma was there. Weak tasting and somewhat flat. Rciesla (3510), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA Sep 11, 2009 Bottle. Pours a amber peach body with a light white pink hued head. Aroma is a bit dank like staled mildewed malt and musky black cherries. Mildly sweet upfront then a more grainy dull malt bill to back up the short lived sweetness. Thin and very short lived in terms of flavor and aroma. I would pass on another one. gsmitty80 (630), Washington DC, USA Sep 10, 2009 This was an interesting beer. Had it on tap and poured a nice pinkish color with a good head and lacing throughout. Aroma was overwhelming, preparing you for the sweet taste ahead. The cherry flavor was strong and overwhelming, but it was a nice beer to try. Will not be having another. njmoons (52), New Jersey, USA Sep 4, 2009 Pours a pinkish amber, looks a little odd, a finger or two of foam which dissapates quickly.
Smell of sweet cherry is present throughout the beer, pleasant but somewhat artificial (?)
Taste is a mild ale, the cherry flavor is in the aroma and very noticable overriding other flavors.
Finish is very nice, clean and crisp.
Overall a fun beer to try, but nothing I would get again.
