Aroma: “Big Brett funk with a medium cherry ester profile. Dark cherries and young Brett. Some subtle toasted malt quality (almost graham cracker and cinnamon) complements the funk well. Peppery spicy notes with the supporting cherry fruitness.”

Flavor: “The combination of dark cherries with a peppery spiciness is very intriguing. This was supported by balanced tartness. The rich bready character blends well with the cherry esters. Acidity is restrained, but it brightens the finish nicely. Just a touch of sour in the tail.”

Overall: “The balance of dark cherry, pepper, and tartness is a welcomed change. The juxtaposition of contrasting flavors and aromas is unexpected and enjoyable. There are some nice things going on in the is beer with the balance of fruit and malt. Very tasty.”
