“Velvety smooth with notes of chocolate and cherry from the addition of cocoa plant chaff and tart Monmorency cherries. Grab a sweater and celebrate cooler weather with us. Brewed with roasted Barley, chocolate malt, caramel 80, and flaked oats.”
Not as heavy and dessert-like as I expected. Light chocolate flavor up front, and then a rich cherry flavor that is very much like biting into a chocolate-covered cherry. The cherry flavor fades on the back end, and then rises again a little bit, in a very interesting way. The whole thing drinks very light, and is fine the way it is—but if it were just a little heavier and just a little richer, it could be great. I was extremely put off by their Covid paranoia (not to mention the soccer lunatics bouncing around like rabid squirrels on a half-cooked batch of crank) the last time we were here, but this time was much better. (And Amy was pleased with the non-beer selections she could enjoy, so this might well be our new go-to drinking spot in Bloomington.)
