Samuel Adams Cherry Wheat

Samuel Adams Cherry Wheat is everything that Samuel Adams Chocolate Bock did a good job avoiding. Instead of being subtly and enjoyable, the cherry syrup flavoring is overpowering and makes this beer hard to drink.

Nice aroma and appearance, the taste is like cherry indeed and better than the hefeweizen.

A very interesting and fruity beer. Definitely an aquired taste. I especially enjoy this beer because it is one of the best available in Nationwide Arena.

i didn’t like this beer. I don’t care for most cherry beers for some reason. the sweet and sourness just doesnt sit right with me

i like sam adams, i like that they never stand pat with their offerings... i like that they are open to (and seem to encourage) new ideas... but this and most of their other fruity brews are not at the top of my list. The first one goes down okay but immediately i’m ready for something else... someone here mentioned a medicinal taste and i’d say that’s about what i was experiencing... too much syrup.

Local bottle. Good concept, poor execution. Just really seemed very artificial to me in the aroma and flavour. Had an astringent, medicinal taste with some random bitterness popping through at times. I’m not a Sam Adams hater at alll but this was not good.

Bottle. Amber reddish color, little white head. Aroma is malts, cherry. Flavor is somewhat tart with a cherry finish, a great fruit beer, probably my favorite one.

Bottle. Pours hazy yellow with a medium sized, white, quickly-dissipating head. Aroma is straight cherry - nothing else. Flavor is a blend of cherry and wheat. One of the best fruit beers I’ve ever had. I suspect this is because cherries are added during the finishing process euch that the result is a sweeter product which does not taste rotten like some fruit beers.
