Head is initially small, fizzy, off-white, fully diminishing. Body is murky dark red. Aroma is lightly malty (toasted light bread), with a strong note of cherry. Flavor is heavily sweet, moderately acidic. Finish is moderately sweet, moderately acidic. Medium body, syrupy texture, lively carbonation. Very sweet...my girlfriend would love this. Enough tartness to keep it from being a total wash, though, and the aroma is strong with fresh cherry.

Oct 2, 2008 Bottle @ Cole’s. Curses: WHY CAN’T I DRINK THIS MORE OFTEN? Hazy strawberry color with little head. Intense cherry pie, compacted jammy aroma. Soft but solid carbonation. Intense jammy body. Pie filling in a glass. Pounds of cherries transformed into beer by goddesses. Kick ass!!! Pleeeeease can I have more? Please?

Sep 28, 2008 Rating # 500! Cloudy garnet pour with off-white, pink/orange-tinted frothy head and great lacing. A pleasure to behold. Nose was very reminiscent of the kind of cherry topping typically served on top of cheesecake or cherry fruit roll ups - something I’ve never been too fond of, but admittedly, this still smelled pretty good. A bit syrupy and similar on the palate, but a bit more tart and I kept getting notes of pineapple juice as well. A tasty beer, but I’d take Raspberry Tart over it any day.

Sep 28, 2008 Bottle, sampled at RBSG 08, with thanks to Ughsmash. Pours an amber-red with no head. Huge sour cherry aroma, reminds me of cherry pie. Taste is both tart and sweet cherries. Lingering tartness. Absolutely amazing cherry beer.

Sep 28, 2008 Beautiful in the glass. Great color and aroma. Strong cherry flavor - kind of like a lambic but more for the adults. Tasty.
