| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Oct 17, 2006 Pouts a deep reddish color with no head. Aroma is cherry, cinnamon, maybe some nutmeg. Still beer with a delicious spiced cherry flavor. Not easy to compare to anything, doesn’t really taste like beer. Some alcohol in the finish but not much. Tangy cherries as opposed to sweet. I drank this one at around 60 degrees or so, I’l love to try it hot. tomthompson89 (1471), Toronto, Ontario, Canada

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Oct 12, 2006 This beer really is "something else". Big cinnamon, nutmeg and clove flavors prdominate with an acid and lactic chracter of ripe cherries and prunes. Rich full mouthfeel and a tart sour finish.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Sep 29, 2006 I still have the empty bottle of this ony my shelf. Thaks to my brother Stegosaurus who drank it with me got a buzz and then cut my hair (wasn’t a wise move) Poured amber an an immediate fruit aroma filled the air, cheery smelling. No head at all. Needs to be served at room temp. It was a bit fruity for my taste but not bad. I lied it. feedmec00kies (49), New York, New York, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 19, 2006 wow, this was really interesting. orangey reddish (looks like water after you boil beets in it) and no head. aroma of sour cherries, a little funkiness, and spices... cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves.. well actually, it smells a lot like chinese five-spice powder. tasted like sour cherries, orange peels, cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon, a bit of damp wood and red wine. a bit of a cloying sweetness. i drank it at around room temperature, though i wish i had tried it hot. i think it would be especially nice to drink in colder weather.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 1, 2006 This pours very unbeer-like. Orange-red amber with no head at all. Very little carbonation to speak of. Cherry mash aroma, cidery. Tart sour cherry flavours with sweet Christmas spice notes. The alcohol is completely hidden. Sweet but not sticky or sickening. An excellent example of the style. daalamar (403), bardstown, Kentucky, USA
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Aug 29, 2006 Murky brown/red color with no head. Aroma is spiced cherries, candied cherried, rotten cherries and more cherries. Flavor is exactly the same with a tart finish. I suppose that if that is what this is supposed to be then they did it well, however rating on my taste this dosn’t do it for me. One dimentional and if you are on the fence as to liking cherries or not this beer will decide. awaller05 (300), Sharon, Wisconsin, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 27, 2006 Vintage 2002: Opened the beer after letting it sit out for an hour to get room temp . Poured a hazy brown with little head to offer. I was surprised by the smell as I smelled the cherries and then to my surprise I caught a whiff of cinnamon. I took the initial taste and found the taste to be quite good, and really caught the cinnamon flavor. Bottle disappeared to quick and I wish I had another.
