John Harvards Chanana

Overall not bad for a fruit beer. Somewhat like many other JH fruit beers I’;ve sampled. Tastes somewhat like a refined wheat or belgian wit, with it’s banana background. Has some odd fruity flavors. Very unique in personality. Cannot taste much cherry just banana. Medium carbonation. Cloudy light brown appearance like apple cider. Smell is rater fruitish with perhaps some coconut and banana aromas. Finish is like a wheat beer, not much bitterness, pretty enjoyable IMHO.

The brewer describes this as an unfiltered hefeweizen with cherry added - shooting for a cherry banana flavor. Sampled on draft at the brew pub this beer poured a murky peach color with a medium sized white head. The aroma was tangy, vaguely fruity and lightly wheaty. The flavor was rather bitter, tangy and vaguely fruity. A bit of a cough syrup element to it.
