jcwattsrugger (4045), Florida and, New Jersey, USA Jan 10, 2008 on tap-pours a disappearing light tan head and black color with red tint. Aroma is black cherry, dark malt. Taste is black cherry, dark malt-chocolate, some yeast. OK effervescence. Nice, medium body, sweet stout. fiulijn (5880), Como; Lausanne (CH); Malmö (SWE), Italy Dec 3, 2007 Draught at the brewpub Dark brown color with mahogany shades. The aroma is a strange mix of cherry syrup, yeast, cleaning product. Horrible flavor, burnt malt and soap, very dry, with a touch of cherries. The final too is horrible, burnt malt only. I couldn’t drink even half of my glass… fordest (1759), Santee/San Diego, California, USA Nov 8, 2007 Draft at brewpub on the way up to GABF. Darkest pour with decent tan head. Very very cherry aromas. Black cherry and cherry pie filling. Flavor was very roasty, but the cherry turned to a sort of cough syrup/medicinal flavor. Better cherry finish though. I thoght it would be better. unclemattie (1620), Georgia, USA Nov 1, 2007 20 oct 07, Draft at Brewpub. Seasonal Beer. Opaque black / brown with a slightly red/purple tint. Looks like a Coca-Cola. Light tan head. Sweet cherry candy aroma. Flavor is very cherry, not much stout. A delicious dessert fruit beer. Sticky glass... Heavy bodied. I probably would not order this beer again, although it was very good. mjg74 (1798), La Mesa, California, USA Oct 16, 2007 Tap at brewpub. Very dark in color. Almost black. Slightly sweet roasted aroma. Reminds me of a chocolate covered cherry. Mostly roasted and malty. Cherry flavor is kind of subtle. Enjoyable brew.
