Blah. Bad bottle maybe. Aroma was great. Strong cherry. Pour was decent. Pour was a nice deep amber with no head. Taste was very old and musty. Cherry and sweet light malt with no carbonation at all. Tasted like old cherry cough medicine. Wonder if this bottle was too old.

I don’t know why I haven’t openned this, but this is a 8-8-02 bottle. Reddish brown color and it is almost still. Only a smattering of bubbles. Cold: Musty cherry, berry nose. The sour cherries are the dominate flavor, with some musty wood, vanilla, sweet tart candy and funky belgian notes. Warm: After doing a hot water bath as indicated, I get more of a head, but still just a whisp. The nose shows more alcohol. The flavor is improved with heat. Tart cherry pie, crust and all, warming alcohol, and fresher fruit notes. Warm this is quite tastey. I vote to heat it up. My numbers on this rating are a vague mixture of cold and warm.

Aroma of sour cherry and red grapes. Poors deep reddish/brown color. Tatse is well balanced mixture of sweet fruits and sour cherries. This beer has less carbonation than almost any beer I’ve had. Tried at room tempature. Incredibly unique beer, like nothing I’ve ever had.

Pours reddish with a fully receding off-white head. Aroma of cherries, sweet candied fruits. Taste is cherries, syrup, raspberries. Mouthfeel is full bodied, lightly sticky with lush carbonation. Tried it room temperature this time, would like to try it again warm.

0.75 l bottle at Stockholm Beer Festival 2007. Hazy red color, virtually no head. Sweet, acidic and cherryish aroma with notes of black currant and almonds. Sweet juicy cherry flavor with some acidity, vanilla and black currant. Too sweet for me.

Delayed entry from Tasting at Holiday Beerfest in Omaha: Enjoyed this one at near room temperature, which might not have been the best to do. Interesting color was actually remarkable...went from ruby to black depending on the lighting...no head to speak of. Aroma is just ridiculous...cherry, cherry and more cherry with some cinnamon in there as well. Cherry is the dominant flavor with a bit of chocolate in there as well. Flavor lasts long after the sip is over. Very strong alcohol presence for an 8% ABV. Interesting and unique beer!

consumed warm. Nice color, rather reddish brown.. no head. Nice tart cherries and lemon. rich and deep. Alcohol is not noticeable. Very nice beer.

Taste of strong cherries and a little bitterness. comfortable smooth palate with a smooth finish. I really liked the natural cherry flavor. I’d buy this one again for a dinner beer.
