Dec 15, 2006 2006 Bottle at CT4 brought by me. Served warm. Aroma of spices, cherry, and punpkin spices. Flavor was very smooth not beer like more like a smooth cider. Appearance was a bright red color and didnt have much carbonation. Flavor was warm cherries and spices. Very nice and I think the suprise of the tasting.

Dec 14, 2006 this shit is bonkers. but not in a good way. i tried it cold and hot. cold it was syrupy and too cherry sweet and just gay. hot. the clove really came through with a vanilla blast at the end. but drinking it was like drinking hot menthol medicine and it totally numbed my mouth up.

Dec 4, 2006 Bottle CT$ shared by bdburdman9, thanks! Served warm. Pours a ruby read with an off white head. Aroma of cherry...almost medicinal...some mint as well...some spices too. Flavor of cinnimon, cherry, apple, and a bit of yeast...almost kinda like wam cider. Sweet, juicy and a little bit chewy at parts with a juicy finish. Pretty neat stuff overall.

Nov 30, 2006 Shared by bgburdman and Bruno the Floridian at Columbus tasting #4. We heated this sucker up on the superb stove at Sliffy’s place--which was lit with a torch of some sorts I believe...Spiced cider aroma pours out of the glass from a dark red body. Palate is medium to full and creamy. Great warm cherry flavor with just the right hint of spices in the background to make it interesting. Really enjoyable.

Nov 29, 2006 Bottle shared by bgburdman9, served warm: Deep red color with a pinkish head. Aroma, cherries and some spice. Flavor, cherries, some hints of apple, a little tart. Medium bodied, and it really did lend itself to being served warm. I could definitely get used to that in the winter.

Nov 24, 2006 Bottle purchased at Sam the Beer Man in Binghamton, NY. Pours ruby with no head. Aroma is cherries, cinnamon, nutmeg and wheat. Flavor is the same with a nice mellow wheat finish. Pretty good fruit beer. This is not too sweet and not syrupy at all.

Nov 23, 2006 750 mL caged and corked bottle. Pours a slightly cloudy ruby with spare to non-existent white bubbly and fizzy head, no lacing. Aroma is average malt (bread, straw, roasted grain), light hops (flowers, grass, lemon), average yeast (dough, earth) with notes of cherry, plum, cask and cola. The cherry is tart with hints of lemon and blends well with the malt aromas. Average duration, moderate sweetness and acidity, heavy bitterness with vninegar notes. Medium bodied, creamy to oily texture, soft carbonation. This paired very well with a Stuffed Pork Loin with Imperial Stout; the tart sweetness of the beer played off very well with the prunes, apples, pork and imperial stout.
