Commercial Description:
An American style fruit beer made with Wisconsin’s Door County cooking cherries and lager yeast. The tartness of the cherry is balanced with the sweetness from the 2-row barley and the flavoring of Mt. Hood hops.

A huge pink head. Color of the beer is a deep reddish copper. Some sediment on the bottom of the bottles falls heavily through the pour. Aroma is tart cherries. Big cherry flavor sits midway between sweet and sour. This is a decent brew but I have to ask whether the world needs another fruit beer.

Snagged a mix-12 of Lakefront while visiting Milwaukee. A bit sour, but it really tastes like cherries.

Bottle shared by fetusprime, thanks Alex. Pours clear ruby with a thin off-white head. A nice dry lager with just enough cherry flavor to let you know that it is there. Very balanced and quite refreshing.

Cherry Lager poured a beautiful sunset red, and had a strong pleasant cherry aroma. Balance was off as a medicinal cherry flavor dominated the sample. Lots of window dressing for a mediocre beer.

Pour is a dark red with a fizzy pink head. Aroma is hard to find with just an ever so slight sourness coming out. Flavor is a little better with a decent helping of cherry followed by a strong puckering sourness. One of those beers i can say i tried but am never going to get again.
