Ungstrup (14724), Frederiksberg, Denmark Oct 16, 2005 [At Stockholm Beer Festival 2005] A hazy orange beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of artificial cherries, and so is the flavor, while the body is thin. Now this is awful - it ought to ruin a brand.... Papsoe (14613), Frederiksberg, Denmark Mar 17, 2005 (Bottle 35,5 cl) Another completely disrespectful American brew - a Cherry Wheat, that’s pretty damned unique! Hazy orangey colour with a slight reddish tint, pretty big head. The Michigan cherries are added twice in the process, but as berries do not have that strong an aroma the brewery has added flavouring giving this beer quite an extreme - and artificial cherry aroma. Quite dry in spite of added honey. Not completely an enticing experience. omhper (12147), Stockholm, Sweden Nov 18, 2003 Bottled. Yellow-brown. Fizzy, artificial and thin. A complete failure. yespr (11613), Copenhagen O, Denmark Jun 26, 2007 12 oz bottle. Pours reddish orange with a light reddish coloured off-white head. Aroma is sticky sweet cherries and almonds. Flavour is rather dry cherries. Very soft mouthfeel, malty/wheaty texture. Dry and slight artificial finish. This beer has some ups and downs, it both smells good and bad and tastes good and bad. oh6gdx (8795), Vasa, Finland Apr 6, 2007 Bottled. Hazy orange colour, medikumsized white head. Aroma is cherry and marzipan. Flavour is marzipan, but is quite weak and watery. Not very exciting... joergen (8429), Frederiksberg, Denmark Oct 7, 2006 Bottle at Stockholm Beerfestival.

argo0 (6842), Washington DC, USA Nov 3, 2003 Big off-white head atop lightly hazed golden body. Aroma is Maraschino -- very sweet, hint of wheat. Taste is medium sweet cherry (not as sweet as the aroma suggests), some mild wheat backing. Finish has slight astringency. Light watery body with acidity in finish.
