jdjuice (203), Japan Dec 30, 2007 Not as bad as most people are making it out to be. Sure, it’s not a lambic. I have no idea why they call it a lambic if it’s not a lambic. It’s an average malty beer with a fair amount of cranberry flavor over top of it. Fairly refreshing, not bad. Probably would get a higher rating if labeled differently. Venessak (1), alta loma, California, USA does not count Dec 29, 2007 This beer is delicious, it’s light and flavorful. The crandberry is just enough in the beer to not over power but give you that fresh taste in your mouth, I enjoy it very much. TyRip (40), Canton, Ohio, USA Dec 28, 2007 A novel idea, but I just can’t get over the artificially sweet and artificially bittering taste of the cranberry flavoring. I admit I am not such a fan of fruited beers, but this is a far cry from Magic Hat #9 in my opinion. bigcat03 (191), Lincoln, Nebraska, USA Dec 27, 2007 Poured this into a flute on 12/6/07. An orange-copper color with a 1 knuckle off white head. Malt, cranberry and wheat on the aroma. Cranberry, apple, malt, and white zinfindel initially. Watered down cranberry juice, lots of malt, and wheat on a tart aftertaste. Body is on the watery side of medium with good carbonation. A fruit beer, but hardly lambic. Cranberry Wheat would be an appropriate name. Not bad if you need a thrist quencher. douglas88 (1556), Salt Lake City, Utah, USA Dec 26, 2007 Bottle. Pours a light reddish hue with a small pinkish head. The aroma is really light-perhaps some fruit. The taste has some cranberries, malts, and tartness. Something is off though. First, this is not a lambic, so why say so. Second, the beer is just really thin and weak while leaving artifical tastes. Not good, but not horrible. ShawnMalloy (119), Auburn, Massachusetts, USA Dec 25, 2007 Pours a pukish ruby red. Smells like puke. Taste a little like puke. Makes your puke taste a little more like puke. I’ve had a bunch of these this year and in past years and I’ve tried to like this beer every time. It just seems to get worse and worse every time I drink it. Thank God its only around for a few months and Sam Adams produces many other great products to make up for this awful bottle puke concoction. thekmoonlegend (93), Lynn, Massachusetts, USA Dec 24, 2007 Probably the worst beer I’ve ever had, and that’s saying alot considering I’m not that picky. It looks alright, but it tastes disgusting...the cranberry combined with the wheaty taste simply does not work. Don’t even waste your time. ruberbox (14), California, USA Dec 24, 2007 Might possibly be the worst beer on earth, if they didn’t have all those awful macrobrewed, watered down beers.
