Having just sampled Troubled Monk’s version of a cherry beer, I can assure you this is far better. It pours a hazy, pinkish gold with a nice white head that retreats to the edges quickly. Where this one shines is in the smell and taste department. The cherry comes through more sugary than tart, and it makes me think of fresh pie. This beer is a definite winner in my books, one worth seeking out on a warm summer day. Easily my favorite brew from this southern Alberta concern.

8oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square. Perhaps a touch out of season with this one?
This beer appears a clear, pink-tinged pale golden yellow colour, with a thin cap of wispy and weakly bubbly off-white head, which leaves a bit of streaky cirrus cloud pattern lace around the glass as it quickly blows off.
It smells weakly of gritty and grainy pale malt, wet wheat crackers, subtle tart cherries, and a bit of earthy yeastiness. The taste is bready and grainy cereal malt, a faint red fruitiness, plain yeast, and perhaps a minor sense of weedy, leafy, and floral green hoppiness.
The carbonation is fairly benign in its bored-seeming frothiness, the body a decent medium weight, and mostly smooth, with nothing here really causing anything near a fuss. It finishes off-dry, the mixed malt and well-faded fruit presiding.
Overall - I'm not getting much from any corner of this offering, as the tart cherries are plain, and the base brew is left wanting in doing anything else for me. Maybe this would work better on a summer patio, but it's 10 degrees Celsius in December in Edmonton, and I still don't care.
