Aroma: “Big cherries—like someone just threw a cherry pie in your face, in a pleasant way! Deep stone-fruit aroma. Tartness with just a touch of sweetness.”

Flavor: “Cherry flavor is relatively restrained compared to the aroma. There’s a nice underlying melanoidin malt sweetness with hints of dried fruit, and this pairs nicely with the pie-cherry sweetness. The sourness balances well. Light hops bitterness somewhat balances the sweetness.”

Overall: “If you like cherries, this is a beer for you. It’s not a one-note wonder, though; there’s a nicely crafted beer underneath that balances well with the fruit and adds dark malt complexity.”
