Keg at the brewpub. Pours murky reddish brown with a creamy, light tan head. The nose holds tangy cherries, toasted barrel, earth, traces of vanilla. Medium sweet flavor with definite barrel notes, light vanilla, some torched caramel, earth, restrained tart cherries, undertones of alcohol. Medium to full bodied with fine to average carbonation. Lightly warming to finish with nips of woody dryness, some earth, toffee, ripening tangy cherries. Quite drinkable given the purported ABV, and it all hangs to get her fairly well.

Keg, labelled as 9.1%. Appearance is a murky brown/dark red, with a pinkish head which doesn’t last long. Aroma- cherry, dark fruit undertones, hint of oak barrel in the background. Taste- quite intense sour cherries, cherry skins, tart fruit, a bit boozy. All about the cherries in this one.

On tap at Foundry brewpub. Muddy deep red colour. Cherry pie aroma. Not much barrel ageing. Some dry sourness on finish. Very decent. Something biscuity and toffee. Decent
