Reviewed from notes.

Pours dark brown with a thin off white head and a toy amount of lacing on the way down. Nose brings forward sweet berries.and some backing chocolate. The taste consists of the same two components, although the cherry stands out more here. Feel is a bit strange. Medium body. Drinkability is quite poor, as the monotonous flavors get old in short order.

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.
