Pours a nice deep pink red with a nice pink head. Nose is cherry with some ale funk - was expecting more fruit in this for the color. Not as fruit forward as some of the other fruit beers I’ve had recently. Mouthfeel is nice, wishing for more cherry and tartness though!

3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 scooter520 (83) - - MAY 26, 2012
Bottle. Appearance: hazy pink/red with light pink head. Aroma: doughy yeast, tart cherries. Taste: tart cherries dominate with cereal, dough, and slight grassiness. Mouthfeel: light body with light to medium carbonation. Overall: meh. Not TOO sweet like can happen with fruit beers. So they did well with the fruit but the rest is just not balanced well enough.
