May 1, 2007 very nice...certainly one the best cherry beers out there, let alone fruit beers...deep reddish brown body with no head...aroma of tart cherry, cinnamon and other spices (nutmeg for certain)...flavor is basically the same, and is very soft in carbonation...i drank this one cold, but will try warm in the winter

Apr 30, 2007 Pours a deep ruby red with no head. Smells of tart cherries, strong cinnamon, and an herbal clove note. Flavor tastes like a sweet cherry pie with lots of cinnamon on the finish. Medium body with just a hint of carbonation.

Apr 25, 2007 750 ml bottle thanks to xnoxhatex. Well maybe we shouldn’t have had this after a sweet mead. Pours a copper red color with a small head. Nose is dominated by cherries and spice nutmeg? Cherry flavors as well very sweet a little too much for me. A hint of tartness, but I was hoping for more of that characteristic. I’m sure I’ll try this one again, next time when I’m in the mood for something sweet.

Apr 23, 2007 From a microwaved coffee mug and from a iced hennepin glass. Rich and sour cherry flavor along with nutmeg. Taste is a lot sharper on ice with a plum aftertaste. This is quite possibly the weirdest beer I have ever tried.

Apr 22, 2007 750ml, thanks to xnoxhatex for bringing and sharing his bottle. pours dark red with little head. nose is cherry and cinnamon. i mainly get sweet cherries and cinnamon in the flavor that comes off being cough syrup-esque and is borderline cloyingly sweet. alcohol is well hidden. carbination is low. maybe i need to try this hot.

Apr 22, 2007 Updated: May 27, 2007Pours to a hazy amber color with virtually no head, although I think that might be the norm for this type of beer..so I did not downgrade for that. Aroma was a pleasant cherry, but also had the scent of a spice I could swear was nutmeg. Mouthfeel was slightly tingly, and a medium bodied, while the flavor was also a mixture of the sweet syrup and a touch of tanginess.
Not my favorite, but a pretty good beer.
