“Mon Chéri” means “my darling” in French and this recipe is a love letter from our brewer, Quinn, to his wife who loves cherries. Mon Chéri Stout is made with Balenton and Montmorency cherries, brewed with oats and a dash of brown sugar creating aromas of amaretto and almond. With one sip you’ll instantly get flavors of cherry cobbler, vanilla, and chocolate, followed by a silky, velvety finish.

500 ml bottle from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours dark brn/blk with a creamy/foamy dark tan head. Aroma of very dark malt with some cherry. Full bodied. Flavor is smooth burnt malt, chocolate and definitely cherry. Brown sugar too. Not at all dry. Moderately bitter. Lots going on, so much that the bourbon almost got by me! Finally in the complex train of flavor heat emerges in a very demure way. Great stuff.
