A light porter, lots of light comes through on this one. A sweet cherry aroma, and a sour cherry aroma battle it out. There is a touch of roast, but not much. The flavor is like a sour/sweet roasted cherry........with touches of smoke. Just a weird combo of flavors, not my thing.

Bottle - Dark chocolate and sweet cherry. Deep jet brown with almost no head. Dark roast and light cherry sweetness with a toast finish. A little cough syrup like for my taste.

Pours cloudy dark without any head or lacing. Aroma of cherry with some bitter chocolate. Average carbonation. Components don’t come together super well. Finishes bitter with light sour note. Tap at Wellington Gastropub.

Says "beer brewed with cherries" on front label. Pours a dark red-brown colour with a soapy cola-coloured head that dissipate fast leaving not much. Roasted malt nose with lots of hop and hints of cherries and coffee. Flat mouthfeel and pretty thick. Pretty much the same for the flavours. Roasted malt, a bit of coffee with a touch of cherries and the hop taking over most of it. I find there is a little confusion with the tastes and aromas trying to mix together, but not really getting along all that well. Would like to try other cherry porters to see if it is the same.

A dark reddish black porter with a thin moka reddish head. A murky woody aroma with light chocolate and resinous wood. In mouth, an interesting butter chocolate, musky, with light fruity notes. Not bad.. Medium bodied. Sampled on tap at Wellington Gastropub, Dec. 11 2008.
