Waaaay too sweet. If I wanted a drink like this I would buy one of those poser fruity malt beverages like Smirnoff. On a good note, the berry smell is wonderful and it does taste good, but can you call this a beer when it doesn’t taste or smell like beer?

Man! This stuff is SWEET!!! Not in a good way either. By the way...where is the beer? I taste no malt, hops, grain, yeast, or water even...This is not even real beer, yeah?

Orangish purple. STRONG berry smell. its like drinking berry juice. not to bad if you love berries. it has some wine characteristics to it. still a beer that i enjoy during the summer and fall months.

Bizarre, strange and foul. Artificial-looking rosy pink with a thin pinkish head. Tastes like a berry wine cooler tainted with dish soap, which manages to ruin its value even as a guilty-pleasure frou-frou brew. Oddly enough, mix in 2 parts of Berry Weiss with 3 parts of Erdinger Hefeweizen and the result tastes a lot like the long-lost original Celis Raspberry, which I enjoyed immensely. So even in its foul state, this stuff is useful for that purpose until MBC starts selling the resurrected Celis Raspberry in the Chicago area.

Allright, I know its sweet...it is wine cooler-esque...but stop hating! Purple/red in color, fruity aroma, head with a purple hue to it. I can only drink one at a time and a 12-pack will last me all summer...but when it is hot out, there is nothing like a Berry Weiss.

This beer is almost too berry-ish! I love berry beer but it can’t be so sweet! This beer is so full of sweetness that it is like drinking blueberry syrup. I mean I can ch=ug down a bottle or 2 of this stuff but that’s it. The sweetness is just overpowering.

Starts with pleasant armoa giving blackberry notes on first taste. Becomes somewhat bitter after third taste, but never overpowering.

ehhh...nothing to run out and buy. OK worth a taste. Mix a wine cooler with a MGD and you’ll have the same thing.
