Comments: We were able to meet up with some friends on Friday for a lovely evening. We walked, from their place, to the Goose and got some great lamb brats to grill. I brought over three beers for us to sample, and we did some planning for a lake vacation we'll take later this summer. Not too bad of a night! Onto the beer - I made the mistake of trying to drink this right after we poured it (right after it came out of the fridge). This is a beer that really needs to be served a little warmer (as they advise on the label). Once it "opened up" a bit, it really was a good beer. It was a bit too carbonated for my taste, but you could taste a subtle cherry flavor that added a bit of complexity to the beer. A solid beer by my standards.
