    Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6

    Ultra dark brown brew with a huge brown head that went to a skim a bit too fast - produced some decent lacing. I'll say that the aroma was pretty good mainly due to the lack of the massive sweetness that I assumed this would have. Marachino cherries (however that's spelt), dusty chocolate powder. It really took a good warming for the black forest cake smell to come together. The taste also was not overly sweet. Similar to the aroma and on the mild side - that is what saves this beer - still drinkable with a small dose of infused flavour. I found this beer to be quite dry with a underlying bitterness that I did enjoy. Finishes dry. A bit too thin. This beer is worth a shot. Never once did I notice the 6.5%.

    Label looks sad and cheap but the beer its self is good enough, extremely dark brown with very little light penetration the cap was a good half inch right after the pour but reduced to almost nothing but some how roapy lacing is left behind. The smell is a dead ringer for those chocolate covered cherries you get at Christmas, dark chocolate and artificial cherry, nice dark roasted malts also make through. This is shockingly good smelling way better then I expected to be. Flavour is also better then expected, bitter chocolate and the cherry is very noticeable with out overpowering the taste, nice and malty and not too sweet either. Mouth feel is to thin and watery this is about the only bad thing I can say about this offering from Alley Kat. As I drink this I’m reminded of black cherry ice cream, the after taste is a very mild coffee. Not a bad brew I’m very impressed if it wasn’t for the mouth feel this would a great brew but I can see my self actually buying this again.
