Hhhhmmmm....kegged this up last night and while the cherry flavor is there, it really seemed to be missing the vanilla and cinnamon flavor (used 1 vanilla pod, squeezed out the guts and tossed in the chopped pod and three whole, broken into larg-ish bits, cinnamon sticks)

It'll sit in the keg for a bit before another sampling, we'll see what that does to the flavor. Although my wife, who hates beer, took a taste and said that this was the best beer she's ever tasted and that she might even consider a glass when it's ready.

Just thought I would add that I am cold crashing a bottle of this to sample and will be imbibing this evening. I am excited to see how it turned out. The sample before bottling was very promising. Some tart cherry notes followed by a warm spicy wave of alcoholic comfort.

I will try to remember to post a review once I have cracked it open. This was the extract version, not the AG, just to keep it straight.

Cheers.
