Delicious.  It’s a deep red amber ale that is 98% Belgian quad and 2% Iambic.  The cherry flavor is not pronounced.  In fact, I couldn’t taste it until the beer warmed up and almost reached room temperature.  If you like hoppy beer, you will not like Three Philosophers.  However if you are looking for a very flavorful, malty, slightly sweet, and very smooth beer, I highly recommend it.  Just be careful—Three Philosophers is a whopping 9.8% alcohol.  In fact I don’t think they can even call it beer in Virginia.  Thank goodness it is brewed in NY!
