A dark reddish brown color body with a thin light tan head. Aroma of cherry pipe tobacco,and roasted malt, a hint of charred wood maybe. Flavor is roasty ,malty. lightly sweet Some of the same burnt wood notes,tobacco,and tart cherries, a little grassy on the finish. A light texture/body with a slightly chalky mouthfeel,spotty lacing,medium carbonation. Drinkable but something is just odd or missing or something.

Beer was extremely foamy. That's what I get for buying from Wal-Mart. After the foam settled i had a dark black beer. Cherry aroma was minimal, as was a cherry taste.

This beer does not hit the hype of it's title. A poor tasting stout with mild malts and mild chocolate flavor with a big dose of concentrated cherry juice that you can tell right away real cherries were not used in the brewing. I would strongly not recommend this one.

From the very old bottle, it pours a very dark brown, almost black with a small head, quickly dissipating to barely a ring. Sour cherry in the nose. The mouth is struck by the cherry flavor as well. Hmm.

This goes OK with cookies. The bottle I's drinking appears to be 9 months old. I don't know what that did to this brew other than ...
It is black and extremely foamy. There is a sour cherry aroma. The taste is overcome with cherries and sourness. I don't think I ever had a stout this sour. There aren't enough malts to overcome this overdose and I can't really taste hops at all. The yeast may be contributing to this as well as some over-the-hill-ness.
I couldn't really recommend this stout, but if you were looking for a weird, sour stout, go for it. At least it was reasonably priced.
