Naturally sweet and dry yet leaves a wet taste on the tongue. Supple natural cherry flavor but nothing overpowering. Good fucking sour beer and the smoke taste is subtle and accents the beer without overpowering. Like a handjob for the mouth.

I tried this at Hunger N Thirst, enjoyed chilled in a glass.
The color is dark red with lots of haze and thin white head. The smell is strong with smoke and light sour in the aroma with gentle woody but not band-aid just fruity and wood in the nose. The feel is dry with toast texture and deep smoke effect with sour in the moderate dept. and medium carbonation with light alcohol and low sweetness with very subtle lingering sour as it finishes smoky.
The taste starts smoky but not as strong as the smell with mild woody and pungent earthy quality not quite charcoal but slight acidic taste of cherry with mix of smoky and tangy in the finish. Overall good in small amounts I was not as into this toward the end the smoke is good but not overdone.

On tap at Bullfrog Brewery in Williamsport, PA.
This one pours a light brownish-red, with a quarter inch head, and a little bit of lacing.
This one smells like smoke, oak, and a bit of sour cherry.
The flavors really meld together well here. The smokiness is not overpowering at all, and gives off a nice warmth and campfire vibe here, with some nice sweet and sour cherry, and some oak, even though I don't think oak comes in to play all in the brewing process for this one. Not sure what the base beer here is, because it's not all that evident underneath the smoke and the cherry.
This is medium bodied, with a toasty mouthfeel, and a moderate level of carbonation.
Another really interesting beer from Bullfrog.
