2.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Tap at Front Street in Davenport on Nov. 25, 2011. Mostly clear pale yellow pour with a decent clingy white head. Nice cherry aroma. Thin palate.
Taste is pale lager and a touch of cherry funk. They actually put a cherry in the sampler.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
On tap at brewpub, pours a light golden with a thin head, aroma has a decent cherry amount and the flavor had a nice bing cherry flavor, pretty balanced overall, I actually enjoyed this one.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Tap at the pub. Pours a cloudy dull yellow with slight head. Sweet aroma of cherries, fruit and soft grain. Cherry is evident in the flavor, that is balanced against a bitter backbone. Slight bitter finish with no fruit remaining. Surprisingly good.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Have had on tap a few times at the brewpub in a pint glass with a delightful cherry dropped in. This is probably my favorite beer of theirs, even though it’s a simple fruit beer. The flavor is slightly sweet balanced with a nice tart character while still tasting the beer backing underneath.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 13/20
Draught at the brewpub. Slightly hazy, golden color with thin white head. The bone-dry, crisp, and bitter characteristics of this beer melded nicely with the ample cherry flavor. Nice fruit beer.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
UPDATED: JUL 15, 2005 Thanks for sharing the sample, Duane. The body is a light clear gold. The aroma is decent with vanilla, cherries and a hint of perfume. The taste is bready with a hint of the cherries in the finish. There is also a light peppery finish.
2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
5 oz. sample at the brewpub. the barkeep called this a cherry stout, but whether it is a fruit beer or a stout, the cherry flavor was minimal. an OK beer, nothing spectacular.
1.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Sample at the brewpub. Cloudy honey color, cherry cough-drop nose, a bit noxious. Some fake cherry in the flavor, little else. Not quite gag-worthy, but so what?
2.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Redish color with next to no head. Strong cherry smell and taste. Stronger cherry than in other beers I have had.
2.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Red orange in color with a small head. Strong marichino cherry juice aroma, sugary and sweet. Too much artificial cherry flavoring, tastes like weak cherry soda. Light and watery.
