Commercial Description:
Fruit beers originated in Belgium and we at The Station are proud to offer our version of these continental classics. Our light-bodied Chessie Cherry Wheat is a blend of red cherries and wheat ale, which yields a slightly sweet, yet agreeably tart, fruit ale.

On tap at Flossmoor. I am going against the grain apparently but I thought this was a great beer. Nice cherry aroma and taste. Not overwhelming at all.

Pours hazy, yellowish gold to orange. Smell is storng cherries and is sweet and cough syrup like, but still somewhat nice. Taste is thin cherry malt. This one was exceptionally thin flavor and body-wise and was definitely one of my least favorite of their otherwise pretty good beers.

Sampled from the full sampler at Flossmoor Station. Poured a more deep orange hue with a soapy head that sticks around. Aromas of cherries that is quite inviting, not overpowering or leaving me with a feeling of impending "Sugar Sweet Beer" doom. Initial taste is watery with a decent, albeit typical, cherry bite. A bit sweet, but not overpowering. Finished clean and smooth with a bit of a wheaty bite. Decent.

Pour is lightly hazed golden with a thin sticky white head...strong cherry sour candy aroma...chemical cherry sweetness with a lingering medicinal finish...

Draft sample at Brewpub. Pours clear golden color with an average creamy white head that was mostly diminished with fair lacing. Moderate dark cherry aroma. Light body. Medium sweet cherry flavor with a light to medium sweet finish of an average duration. My expectations where not met.
