Reviewed from notes.
Bottle to tulip.
Appearance: dark ruby red color with two fingers of eggshell white foamy head which dissolved nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: caramel/toffee malts, vanilla, butterscotch, sweet earthiness, fruitcake and sweet cherries
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas into a nice sweet rounded quality; finishes with the cherries, that "fruitcake"-like vibe and caramel malts
Texture: medium bodied, leaning to being a sipper; some smoothness but a brisk dryness trickle to the tongue
Overall: nice Winter warmer with cherries in it. I'd have again.

Bottle - labeled 10% abv - deep mahogany - moderate tan head - nose of oak, vanilla, cherry, earthiness, moderate tannic character - creamy texture, full body - lots of tart cherry, deep oak, cassia bark, vanilla, red wine, earthy British maltiness - deep and surprisingly complex, with a surprising level of tartness - I like.

Tart cherry, vanilla caramel malt, hay, and alcohol aroma. Dark brown with small light brown head. Lightly sweet red cherry, caramel malt, and mildly bitter dry hay and alcohol flavor. Okay body.

12 ounce bottle. Rating number 5,555. Deep mahogany brown color has a tinge of burgundy red. Small creamy tan head. Cascading lace. Subtle toasted malt aroma has a hint of ripe cherries and oak.. Flavor upfront is semi-sweet toasted malt. Subtle roastiness is married with dark cherries that leaves a hint of cocoa. Soft on the palate. Some cherry tartness on the backend. Quite tasty.

Bottle/Fest. A- Cherries, caramel, biscuits. A- Copper color, hazy liquid, off white head. T- Malt, caramel, mild cherry. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, malty finish. O- Didn't love the base beer so I wasn't sure if the cherry would help. This was rather malty and the cherries almost added a medicinal touch although a sweet natural taste. Okay I guess.
