What Our Editors Thought
“Mellow, fruity nose evokes more fleshy strawberry than cherry, with some bright lime and herbal notes. Gently tart with some tannic structure. Light-bodied and pretty dry finishing; slight tannic astringency does more to suggest fruit than hinder drinkability.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Aromas of cherry, rose, almonds, lactic acidity. Pleasantly sweet taste delivers same notes as the nose with vanilla-almond flavor edging forward.”
What the Brewers Say
“Mixed-fermentation farmhouse ale aged on Montmorency cherries.”
