Commercial Description:
An American style fruit beer made with Wisconsin’s Door County cooking cherries and lager yeast. The tartness of the cherry is balanced with the sweetness from the 2-row barley and the flavoring of Mt. Hood hops.

Golden color with a reddish tinge. Aroma is very grainy with just a hint of cherry. Taste has a decent grainy-malt flavor with a nice cherry tart taste. Nice feel with a clean finish. Not bad.

Poured a light reddish color with a lasting white head. Both in the flavor and aroma, this was just enough cherry to let you know it was there. It wasn’t overpowering, which I liked. It was slightly tart, which wasn’t really a bad thing. Good carbonation. I’d definitely have it again.

Pretty tart, really. Almost in gueuze territory. I liked how it was a touch cloudy though. Really pink, too. Reminded me of some interesting Cantillon gueuzes I’ve had.

6 Pack - Pours a dark reddish/light orange color, with perfect whitish pink head. Aroma is, of course, fresh cherries, wheat, malt, and crispness. Taste is same, surprisingly the cherry flavor is nicely tart, just a little sour, and not artifical or cloying - nice. Light-bodied and refreshing. Pretty great for a fruit beer.

Pours lighr orange/brown with a lightly pink head. Aroma is lightly fruity with some wheat aroma. Excellent sour cherry flavor with a refreshing wheat quality. Relatively light body, but a very appropriate body at that. Good beer.

Cloudy amber with a half-inch white head. Lightly fruity malt aroma. Flavor is all malt and cherries, slightly sour. Light, dry finish. Just ok.

Copper, redish color. Smell of light cherries, copper, malt, some hops and pie crust. Taste of hops, tart cherries, copper, bread, caramel and minor citrus. Sweet and tart and gave me heartburn.
