COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
You’ll have a soft spot for this one. Using only fresh Michigan tart cherries, this beauty tantalizes with intense flavors combined with a no hesitation malt bill. Adding fresh cherries at five separate stages of fermentation achieves the ultimate balance between tartness and sweetness.

NosirIwont (1537) - Aalborg Vestby, DENMARK - DEC 17, 2009
Bottle. Pours a hazy ruby amber with a small pinkish head. Dusty, malty aroma with a strange spicy touch (sort of like a mix of anise and cloves) and notes of play-doh (!) in the vicinity of the glass, all of which makes for a strange blend. No cherries though. Tart, sweetish flavour with anise, metallic notes and a slight overtone of cherries. Tart, dry anise finish with lingering notes of chamomile. Overall an interesting, if not a very memorable, blend of spices, but it would have been nice with some actual cherry notes in it. Also a bit cloying. Meh. 17-12-09.

dwaggs2 (1127) - Jefferson City, Missouri, USA - DEC 11, 2009
Bottle. Poured a ruby red color with a little white head that went quickly. Aroma was over powered by cherries, some cimmamon and malts. Flavor was very sweet. Cherries, ginger, raisin, and other fruits. Very sweet beer. Average at best, just not my style.

Sweet, tart cherries, but not overly so. It doesnt go overboard with a big dose of alcohol. Just the right amount of hops on the tongue to let you know your not drinking wine here. This is a very good fruit beer. Definitely a repurchase.

Reddish pour. Aroma reminds me of cherry life savers or maybe cherry jolly ranchers. Flavor is loaded with cherries, sweet and tart. My wife enjoyed this one a lot!
