This is a pretty decent beer, had this at Mackenzies on tap.
Appearance is pretty good, dark almost maroon color with some head and no real lacing.
Smell is good, with a large overdose or dark fruit- most notably cranberries and some almost coffee malt.
Taste is nearly identical, except they come through sharper and more abrupt. Fruit, then malt.
Mouthfeel is very good, medium to heavy in body and some good carbonation.
Drinkability is good.

On tap at POPE, July 2016. Likely a leftover from their Surly event during Philly Beer Week. The BA listing says this is an "oak-aged cranberry stout".
Really? I get very little oak and only a faint note of cranberry/cherry tartness...
Nice grassy hop aroma going around, and yummy roasty-toastiness.
Not terribly complex, not sour as I expected... but damn delicious and mighty poundable!
