gotbeach (128), San Diego, California, USA Feb 29, 2008 Bottle. Golden pour with small ring head. Slighty fruity aroma. Gives a smooth feeling on the tongue, but I didn’t get much real cranberry flavor, and it has sort of a flat finish. bigrond (1043), factoryville, Pennsylvania, USA Feb 28, 2008 had this beer in a holiday sampler pack. I enjoyed it the LEAST of the bunch. It was not refreshing of even very good. I remember giving away the last one to a ’friend’. Sam Adams is a good brewery but this was wasn’t very good. GuinnessGal (59), Virginia, USA Feb 27, 2008 Pours a reddish orangewith a thin tan head. Aroma made me not want to drink it. Taste is okay. Cranberries, malt, and honey left on the lips and tongue but there’s still that sourness. HUNTERNFLA (25), USA Feb 25, 2008 Not a good combination. Nice color though. But cranberries in beer doesn’t suite me. The taste isn’t great. bitter on the end wasent a favorite Bradrcr (778), Renton, Washington, USA Feb 24, 2008 Samuel adams cranberry lambic 7 3 11 4 5 30
2/10/08 From 12oz bottle. Aroma a blend of tart cranberry and low phenolics of cloves and plastics. These are faint enough to not harm the overall quality, but don’t really make it delicious either. Appearance is copper with a very slight haze and an extremely well maintained white head. Flavor is true fruit forward, with a tannic, winelike character. Phenolic character stays in the background and is barely noticeable. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a slightly lingering finish that is sweet and slightly sour. Overall, it’s an ok lambic, but strikes too much of a compromise, avoiding the interesting high complexity and overdoing the fruit content at the same time.
ebrowner88 (113), Rice, Minnesota, USA Feb 23, 2008 As much as i disliked the leinies berry weiss, I was not expecting much. Bottom line, this aint bad. Not something i’d drink a lot of, but with a leftover turkey sandwich, it goes down real nice.
Dispite the name, i didn’t get much lambic style out of it. Kirill (264), Durham, North Carolina, USA Feb 19, 2008 smells like punch, tastes like it too, there isnt much of a beer here, and sure as hell no lambic jfenglish (198), Chicago, Illinois, USA Feb 16, 2008 Bottle- sampler pack. Nice lacing, slight pink hue. Doughy, yeasty aroma. Tart upfront, with nice real cranberry flavor- nothing artificial at all. Lightly sour, touch of vanilla. Enugh sweetness to be surprisingly hearty. This is good stuff.
