We've been trying to get this cherry for over 5 years, but it matures so early that the birds usually get to them first. This cherry is even darker than Balaton cherries, we've never made a beer with cherry notes like this.

Hazy brick red with a short white head immediately dying to a thin chain.
At first I associate the classic qualities of cinnamony cherry pie, but that immediately diverges into a sort of sour chocolate cherry cake I've never quite had in a kriek-like beer before.
A little char leads into an acid that comes just shy of acetic, however, detracting from the overall experience.
