This perfectly balanced fruity ale is brewed with noble hops & sour cherries. It is a delicate tasting luxury designed to explode with flavor!!!

Tasted in a snifter from draft at Whole Foods Market on March 29, 2019. A dangerously drinkable well balanced fruit ale brewed with Noble hops and Michigan cherries. This delicate ale is light and crisp with a subtle tartness and semi-sweet finish.

Pours clear light pink golden. Little bit of lacing.
Smells lightly of cherry and biscuit.
Tastes of maraschino cherry, raspberry, wheat malt, hint of medicinal finish.
Medium body, tingling carbonation on the roof of the mouth.
Decent fruit beer, sweet with a little tang. Goes down easy. A bit bitter in the aftertaste like medicine.

Pours reddish brown - clear and crisp. Thin white head. Smell is sweet with tons of cherries. Smells like fresh crushed cherries. Taste has some notes of cherry but it's. It as strong as the nose would suggest. Seems much more balanced now than the older reviews would suggest. Some wheat is noted on the back end. Feel is light and drinkable. Medium carbonation. Definitely not my style of beer, but it's good for what it is.
