samadams2442 (3), livonia, Michigan, USA does not count Jan 11, 2008 this is a beer I can drink any hot summer day, that is when it is best to enjoy. Love everything about it. elgavilancillo (63), South Gate, California, USA Jan 10, 2008 nice light amber honey color with cherry aromas nice smooth cherry taste and finish ok beer kidmartinek (972), austin, Texas, USA Jan 10, 2008 A light maple color on the pour. Large foamy, frothy head. Sweet aroma, with the cherries definately present. Light bodied ale taste, and the cherry comes through pretty strong. A nice beer. The aftertaste is a little funky. At first taste this beer seems like half winecooler half beer because of the sweet cherry taste, but it settles down a little bit as you sip. captianoats (30), Jasper, Indiana, USA Jan 10, 2008 Updated: Sep 3, 2008From Bottle: The nose is all cherries. It tastes like I dissolved a Ludens cough drop in a Sam Adams. It’s not entirely unpleasant, but the cherry flavor is a little "fake." Once you get to the finish, you do get a hint of wheat. Personally, I would like to have less cherry flavor that is authentic, and more of the wheat flavor that made me buy this beer in the first place. FarFromHome (82), Philadelphia, Alabama, USA Jan 9, 2008 In a life full of terrible mistakes, drinking this beer may have been the worst mistake I’ve ever made. The first sip brought along with it the taste of factory-generated, industrial-strength cherry syrup. I can’t get past the heavy-handed chemical cherry taste. Like an alcoholic cherry coke mixed with concentrated grenadine. My female friends love it, but I’d rather have someone hit me in the head with a tire iron than one of these beers to accompany a burger. UofFkid (108), Orlando, Florida, USA Jan 7, 2008 Bottle. Cloudy amber pour, aroma definetly is present. A lot of folks don’t favor this offering from Boston Beer Company but I’ve always enjoyed it as something different. Has a very nice cherry taste but you never lose the Hefe feel. docsteigs (139), USA Jan 6, 2008 Very nice brew by Sam. Cloudy and pleasant appearing with generous head. Tastes smooth and light; cherries present but do not dominate. Impressively smooth and very easy and pleasant to drink. lax7584 (31), Deer Park, New York, USA Jan 6, 2008 Not much of a head but was rather tasty. Some one described it as drinking a beer with a cherry cough drop. I enjoyed it more than that, but not my favorite of Sam Adams.
