22oz bottle. Poured a medium and slightly cloudy amber color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of mainly tart cherry pie filling and I’m also getting some oakiness. Tastes of cherries and sweet berries. I thought this had a decent cherry aroma but the flavors were a bit of a let down. Thinner body.

Pours a dark copper orange with a ruby tint and a thin, white ring of head. Nice semi-sweet tart cherry and biscuity malty aroma. Starts with mildly sweet crystal maltiness revealing some fresh, tart cherry flavor toward a full bittersweet fruity finish. An interesting, decent fruit beer.

Hazy honey colored body. Mild tart cherry pastries in the nose, some yogurt yeast presence, some adjunct-like corn meal and some faint creamed cherries. Weird, midlly tart beer, with some rubber and burnt toast flavors that don’t sit too well.

Poured a lightly hazed golden amber color. Aroma of cherry pie filling, without most of the sweetness. Malt comes through underneath. Flavor of caramel malt and a touch of cherry (not enough compared to the flavor). not much sweetness with a mild bitter finish.

On tap @ MBGF: Cherry aroma with some moderate tartness. Cloudy ornage with a small white head. Flavor is kind of a cherry Euro-lager. Flavor is more sweet cherries with only the slightest hint of tartness. Not bad. Definitely better than Bell’s attempt.
2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20 Eyedrinkale (3214) - Astoria, New York, USA - MAR 30, 2006
22 oz bomber. Filtered gold color with a tan head. Aroma is more malt than cherries Tastes like there are some cherries in there somewhere but not really enough. Sort of like putting new rims on an old Yugo, as the beer before the cherries in’t that good to begin with. Together, this isn’t very good and a fucking rip off for $5.99.

Provided by kmweaver. Hazy, light amber body with a small off-white head. The nose is lightly sweet with cherry, light caramel and some copper. The flavor is lightly sweet with cherry, cotton candy and dough. Medium body is spritzy with hight carbonation.

22oz bottle, courtesy of moejuck. Thanks, Joe! Pours a murky, pink grapefruit color; white head with patchy lacing. Pleasant amounts of cherries and sugar in the aroma; not very dense, mostly cherry syrup. Medium mouthfeel: cherry syrup and sugar and an off fruit flavor; singular in its fruit character; a bit flabby in the mouth. Medium, cherry and sugar finish.
