Sample from some fantasy football drafters at the bar. Big big cherry nose. Red Cherry juice color, a little fuzzy foam still there. Both sweet and tart cherry taste at the same time. I'm thinking of a cordial, but it's still light like a regular beer. Somehow getting a Robitussin now at the end, bit it's really nothing like that.

Cherry and raspberry. Pours dark brown with pretty good head and lacing. Some caramel. Light sweet finish. Shared at DC Beer tasting.

Bottle courtesy of Virby44. Auburn with a frothy head of modest duration. The cherries carry the aroma, very intense, although the apple cider is just underneath. Taste is apple juice sweet with a long, cranberry tartness. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation. Not exactly refreshing, anything so cherry infused verges easily into medicinal for my taste. A touch too sweet. Addictive though.

Bottle thanks to Bill Young! Pours muddy brown/red with a small fizzy offwhite head. Aromas of apples, tart candy, sugar, candied apples, marzipan, strawberry, caramel candy (elefantsnørrer). Taste is green apples, marzipan, candied cherries, tart cherries. Not really feeling these.

Bottle. Fruit, green apples, gooseberry, jam, light funk. Taste is great again, apples, red fruit, berries, little bit sweet, brown sugar. Little sour bite. Yum.

Bottle pour into nonic pint glass from Fresh Thyme, Milwaukee. Appearance is clear ruby red with slight orange tint, decent lazy sparkle, ephemeral fizzy cap of beige head and no lacing. Aroma is alternating sweet cherry and tart fruit. Taste is strong dominant sweet cherry over moderately strong tart fruit. Palate is light-to-medium bodied with thin texture, soft-to-average carbonation and finish as taste that makes the sides of my mouth pucker! Overall, nothing beery except the fruit but aromas/flavors are strong and the brewer manages to keep a sweet beer from being too sweet or a tart beer from being too sour by balancing them out. No easy feat. Props.

Bottle shared by Niko, many thanks! Pours somewhat reddish with almost no head. Tart apples, red berries, redcurrant. Borderline tart cider/sour beer. Phenomenal.

Bottle. A very kind extra received in a trade. Should you happen to read this Mark, thanks very much! Mostly clear, deep, reddy amber colour. Thin, dense, lacing, lasting, just off white head. Nose on this is awesome. It’s like liquified Bakewell tart. Loads of cherry, cherry stone, almond, cranberry, and sweet, caramelised apple. Soft, vanilla oak. Taste is sticky, ripe cherry sweet, with perfectly pitched, tangy sourness. Smooth mouthfeel. Minimal acidity. Soft carbonation. Twangy, cherry and apple to finish. Beautiful.
