750 mL bottle from the brewery. I miss that place. Pours a clear red color with maybe a touch of brown. Medium sized foamy brown head. Decent head retention. Aroma of earth, toffee, yeast, cherry, spice, bready malt. The taste is toffee, bread, tart cherries, dark fruit, anise, spice, yeast, Twizzlers candy, citrus. Medium bodied, low carbonation, moderate booze. Solid.

Bottle @ Dan’s house, courtesy of arminjewell. Thanks Armin! Ruby red with a touch of orange and a tan head. Dull fruity (cherry/berry), belgian yeasty, light candy sugar aroma. Dull, mildly tart cherry, dark belgian ale flavor. Not much candy sugar in the flavor and it’s nice that it is not syrupy like some quads.

Sampled at the January ’10 Metro Detroit tasting. Poured a cloudy orange with an amber hue and a creamy light brown head. Aroma was full of sugars, sweet cherries and some booze. Flavor was overly sweet with notes of cherries and booze.

Sampled from a 22 oz green bottle this beer poured a murky orange-brown color with a medium sized khaki head that faded quickly. The aroma was tart sour cherries and light caramel. The flavor was bitter and tart cherries with sweet caramel, molasses and brown sugar. The finish was long with tart cherries and brown sugar. Thick and full bodied. A bit of alcohol shows through. Well done.

I had this once before, I think CaptainCougar shared it at a gathering. I wasn’t a fan then but thought I would give it another go around at the brewpub. 750mL split between 3 people. The pour is completely murky, thick, cannot see into it at all. The color is orange-copper. There are some small carbonation bubbles that pop up at the sides of the glass. Aroma is strong, sweet, cherry, and alcohol... surprised? It is strong and out of control. The cherry is there and it works decently. Taste has a lot more alcohol, they even tingle the lips a little bit. Alcoholic biscuit bread throughout, much less cherry comes trough, just a sweetness. Hot mess as I first thought.
