My Cherry Valentine Ready to Drink!

Well the title of this post pretty much says it all. My Cherry Valentine (inspired by Josh) is ready to drink. It should be pretty delicious! The cherry flavor is very hard to find but it's there - at least it doesn't taste like cough syrup! Also you should notice a significant honey flavor and a malty sweetness. Not too bitter either. Also, this is the first Pillbox ale in which I have used Irish Moss as a clarifier, so admire the clear and bright color of this one! Please enjoy and write back with some comments on this blog.

    I just tried my first bottle of My Cherry Valentine. It was great!! It had the same rich malty base as most of Pillbox's brews, with a surprising thick hoppiness that lingers in your mouth. I could not taste any cherry, which is too bad. However, I really enjoyed the overall smooth body of this late winter treat.

    I couldn't taste cherry either at first, but try drinking two beers: the first a standard pale ale (for me it was Stone) and the second My Cherry Valentine. You will notice the cherry; it's there.
