Oct 15, 2009 This beer has a nice mild barley wine aroma with a hint of fruit. The feel is not too thick. It hits the tongue with a subtle malt taste and finishes with a note of raisins.

Oct 15, 2009 Cloudy amber-brown pour with a disappearing head, aroma has strong fruit and yeast. Flavor is strong with cherry and roasted caramel, great mouthfeel. Finishes fantastically smooth, strong alcohol presence.

Oct 13, 2009 Bottle. Definite cherry smell and taste, as advertised. It has the quad feel to it - the richness, the spiciness, the dark fruits, but it’s balanced with the cherry flavor. I like cherry flavor, don’t get me wrong, but I honestly think it would be better sans cherry. I liked it, I’ll buy it again, but I wasn’t "oh my god" wow’ed by it.

Oct 13, 2009 Cherry vinegar, brown sugar and cinnamon on the nose, some hints of peach. Dark brown/orange color, big frothy tan head, nice lacing. Clove caramel sweetness, some lavender oil and tart cherry pit bitterness. Huge carbonation, medium body, orange pith bitter finish with sweet and tart cherry brandy alcohol warming finish. Very tasty and interesting beer. The cherry component is somewhat subtle, but it makes a big impact throughout this beer making it complex and unique.

Sep 30, 2009 750ml bottle poured into a plain ol’ clear glass beer stein (sorry, I don’t own any fancy glassware). Dark brown pour with some red tint and a nice beige head. Complex fruity taste, can really pick up the cherry taste. Thick, creamy mouthfeel. Very smooth. I consider this my "stand by" Quad, not the most amazing I’ve ever had but affordable and easy to find.
