Can, Legacy. Black body, but without much head. The aroma is mostly chocolatey, with light roastiness. On the palate, mostly roast and chocolate. I actually don't get a lot of cherry. But it's still a solid beer.

On tap at Strathcona, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma is loaded with cherries, chocolate cake and a touch of toasted malt. Flavour is like drinking liquefied cherry chocolate cake, with a dry cocoa nib character on the finish. Nicely constructed and balanced. Good stuff.

Draught at the brewery, nitro
Black colour. Cardboard, some poop.
Undercarbonated, oily mouthfeel, some roasty malt, carboard, light acidity from the fruit but no evidence of cherry, dry finish.
Ok beer.

Tall can from JAKS NW shared with Andrey. Pours an almost black with a weak dark beige head. Aroma is very pastry with some harsh and not very elegant black forest cake. Similar taste. It's ok.
