Draft, after meeting Illinismitty for beers. Pours a dark ruby red color with no head. Strong aroma of CHERRIES. The flavor was mainly sweet black cherries. Light acidic sour notes in the finish. Good stuff

bottle. Ruby red pour with a pink head. Aroma is cherry. Taste is all cherry, sweet in the begining and then sour as it warmed. Covered the alcohol quite well.

Tap - dark ruby with a purplish/pink light layer of foam that quickly subsides into faint bubbles around the rim of the glass. Ample carbonation present as bubbles race to the surface through out. Aroma predominantly of sweet cherries. Flavor is initially sweet black cherry and berries which gives way to a tart finish and spritzy carbonation on the tongue with a very faint hint of alcohol but nothing to indicate 8%.

Pours deep ruby with a champaign like red/pink head that dissapates quickly. Aroma of cherry juice, barn, wood. Taste starts with tart cherries, with a dry woody flavor that just seems off or hollow somehow.

ours ruby, no head, tiny bubbles around rim. smells of tart cherries, cough syrup. the flavor is pretty good, with tart cherries and a bit of frizz, finishing with the tartness of cherries. not a very complex beer, but it hides the 8% alcohol well. overall, not a cough medicine, but a pretty good throat medication.

Clear reddish of color with a reddish head. An aroma of cherries and sweets. A flavor with fruits, cherries, sweets and red berries.
