May 5, 2008 On tap from the release/ 2nd Anniversary Party. Brown murky look to it with not much in the way of a head. Smeels like cherry, cramel malt and yeast. Very easy in your mouth and pleasant. Way complex in flavor. Bourbon notes, dried fruit, sugar, molasses, with just the right amount of sweet and tart cherry. Very hard to detect alcohol. Insane beer!

May 4, 2008 Updated: Sep 11, 2008This stuff is so freakin’ good. Had at the release today on tap, pours cloudy, dark caramel brown with no head. Nose is light and tart with some brett funk, as is the flavor as it tingles your tongue when it passes your lips. Very smooth and dangerously drinkable, considering the % and $!

Apr 30, 2008 sampled at DLD, wish I knew/remembered who passed this out to rather random beer fans late in the day at DLD, but thanks! Another example of a very generous soul at DLD... part of what makes it so great - Pours hazy brown with an aroma of tart cherries and some yeast and malt. The flavor is both sweet and tart with cherries, oak, and malt. I didn’t really notice the 11.5% abv. Nice.

Apr 29, 2008 Updated: May 11, 2009Thanks to the very kind gentleman who gave me a little of his bottle at DLD. Poured a very cloudy brown color. Nice sour aroma with inviting cherry and a little wood. Taste starts out nice, some punchy sour, nice barrel, a little raising and dark fruit, and then moves slowly towards a beautiful finish of tart cherry and earthy notes. The taste was very good, but the lasting finish is what got me. This beer finishes great in the mouth. Nice work.

Apr 23, 2008 Draught @ brewery. Very warm, friendly brown color. No lacing. Strong cherry nose with brandy and its barrel. Flavors are same with honey kiss at end. Slick mouthfeel, and too drinkable like Tomme’s others.

Apr 21, 2008 Tap at Beer Dinner. Pours with a dark color and is fairly flat. Great aromas of cherry and tart fruit, flavors are subtly tart, with some wood, leather and even some coffee thrown in. Quite complex.
