The taste is bitter-sweet, juicy, cherry, dirt, light acidity, fruit cake, candy, sweets and booze with a dry finish. Medium to full body and fine carbonation. Big and sweet. Filthy.

750ml shared by Ben at a tasting. Thinner than I would’ve expected from for 11%. Cherry, chocolate. Thin on the palate somehow. Grew on me a but. Probably not the best beer to have just a small taste of. Not really nailing it, but good.

750 ml bottle. The cherry smells like chili powder. No chocolate, just bad fruit puree. Why does it smell like chili peppers??? what the hell is going on with this brewery? This should not be sold to people, bad home brew, labeled as a commercial beer. Buyer beware.... no, really.... be careful! posting this as a warning.
