Sep 15, 2009 A: Poured with a fairly large-sized, white head that dissipated to 1/2-finger size while drinking. Body is slightly hazy with a nice orange color.
S: Whewf... I was expecting cherry, obviously, but this is quite STRONG cherry. Very sweet-smelling, like cherry candy. I’m a little wary about the taste.
T: However, the taste isn’t as expected. There’s cherry in there, and as a whole the beer is moderately sweet, but NOT as sweet as I had expected from the smell. Crisp, sweet finish that doesn’t become cloying in the mouth.
M: Light-bodied, yet a slightly creamy texture. Average carbonation.
D: Wasn’t too impressed with the aroma, but otherwise this is a fairly-enjoyable beer that would be even better on a hot day. I couldn’t drink more than one or two, as the sweetness may become too much.

Sep 14, 2009 bottle: pint glass: color is solid amber, no head at all. Nose is faint cherries and some grains.... the cherry smell makes me nervous: fake cherry syrup?! We’ll see... Initial taste is actually grainy, I needed to chew through it to find the cherries... and as expected, tasted artificial.

Sep 14, 2009 Pours a cherry red, has the aroma of cherries, tastes of cherry, guess the aftertaste.

Sep 13, 2009 Serving: 12 oz. bottle.
Appearance: Hazy orange with a small, foamy, white head. Okay head retention.
Aroma: Lots of cherries followed closely by light wheat notes, a little earth, and a touch of paper.
Taste: The cherry seems a bit overwhelming and artificial too. Earthy wheat notes with a little tropical fruit lurk in there. Light bitterness in the background. Okay, but not really my style.
Palate: Medium carbonation with a medium-light mouthfeel and a medium, cherry laden finish.
Overall: It’s okay, but too much cherry for my liking. Drink this one at your own risk.

Sep 11, 2009 I guess this is my fruit tasting section since I’ve gone from orange, to blackberry, and now cherry. Pours to a light, white head. Has an easy taste, but the cherry is very strong. goes down smooth with no aftertaste. It is really enjoyable, but not for the more traditional beer drinker. It is more akin to drinking a cherry wine cooler.

Sep 8, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pours a hazy amber color with a 1/2" off white head. Aroma is cherry with some wheat and malt. Average palate, nothing to comment on. Taste is overwhelmingly cherry, however, more of a cherry extract than natural cherry. Some wheat notes. Came in a mixed 12 pack, glad I didn’t buy a six pack of it.

does not count  Sep 8, 2009 This has low ratings but I kind of like it. Cherry ness is like a jolly rancher. Kind of fun, I can only stand to have two of these at a time since the more you drink, the blander it gets. Something fun for when I’m in the mood.

Sep 3, 2009 By fruit beer standards this is pretty lame. Cherry smell with honey and malt. Taste is malt and fruit. Alright beer but would rather something else.
