Sampled @ Borefts Beer Festival 2017, day 1. Dark brown to dark red-brown color, no head. Smell and taste malts, dark malts, lovely caramel and raisin in there, very balanced, light but noticeable cherry in there with a nice mix of sweet sour and bitter. Very complex and ver lovely indeed! (Or was it the Cherry Fred from the Wood they poured? Unclear so far, will move rating when clarified)
