bb (2905), Martinez, California, USA Jun 21, 2008 Bottle. Golden amber with a bit of a reddish tint and an off-white head. Cherry aroma with a bit of wheat. Fake cherry flavor with a bit of wheat behind it. Medium body. Fairly refreshing. LIngering fake cherry (but not that bad). 12many (231), Ohio, USA Jun 21, 2008 It smells like fake cherries but it doesn’t look aweful. Tastes kinda like a someone took a macro light beer and poured fake cherry juice in it. I regret trying this. Nice one Sam Adams....I can’t finish this. llcooldave (309), San Antonio, Texas, USA Jun 20, 2008 Cherry aroma is really present right after pouring. Nice! Cloudy amber in appearance. Really mellow flavor with a hint of sweetness. Not a bad beer overall. Good drinking for the summer months. blizzardlover (43), Minnesota, USA Jun 20, 2008 Beer started coming out of the bottle when I opened it. I quickly poured it and was happy that it did not go nuts w/ carbonation. A small head of pink-white appears after a few minutes. My colorblind eyes observe a cloudy golden-red-amber within the pint glass. A whiff reveals an obvious blow of cherries. First drink. Nice cherry flavor combined with soft wheat flavor. I’m pleased that the beer is not obnoxiously dominated by cherry. The malted wheat is there. I taste a chocolate covered cherry in there. thejon375 (390), Tampa, Florida, USA Jun 17, 2008 Updated: Feb 21, 2009For a quazi micro brew Sam Adams beers are quite delicious. I think the right time and the right place this beer is delicious. However, I can only drink one or two, a little fake flavor but not too bad. I enjoy it with sharp cheddar cheese. railcat1 (578), Orlando, Florida, USA Jun 17, 2008 I always drank this before i got really into micros but never rated it,i always loved the smooth cheery flavor with a nice malt finish and refreshing to the end.CHEERS! Bhef25 (35), USA Jun 16, 2008 NOw I am a fan a fruit beers. However this one was really bad. I think the guy who said cherry juice poured into budweiser about sums it up. Never again. CaryTheDude (1113), Longmont, Colorado, USA Jun 16, 2008 Smells like maraschino cherries big time. Tastes like someone poured some maraschino cherry juice into a budweiser, which improves the flavor, but that’s about as far as this one goes.
