Discussion
Good cherry taste

Final beer had a good cherry taste that tends to linger. Would probably add higher amount of "Tart cherries" in next batch, but taste still good. Allowed to age in bottle longer than originally planned due to hot weather. Would probably recommend letting beer age in a more controlled temperature area such as a basement area.
