tsarman (794), Northern, New Jersey, USA Jun 5, 2005 Served somewhat warm, though I don?t know if that was the intention. Beautiful reddish brown. Very cherry but it was more mellow than most. A solid beer. BigSkyman007 (188), USA Sep 11, 2004 Amazing Cherry beer. Has a wonderful reddish color with a nice cherry aroma. Very smooth, some foamy head, cherry flavor was balanced just right, not artificial(like Cherry Wheat) or overpowering, and had a nice sweetness that lingered on the tongue. Excellent beer! scraff (1612), Baltimore, Maryland, USA Jun 11, 2003 Reminds me a bit of New Glarus Red (which is AWESOME) As stated by guzzler, definite styling of a Belgian Kriek, but more taste and palate of a very good Cherry Wheat. Crisp, slightly tart, dry, and refreshing. A good summer beer without a doubt. PS - 300 lbs of Michigan cherries were used in the brewing process. You can certainly tell. That's a good thing! :-) Enjoy. guzzler67 (1121), Hanover, Maryland, USA Jun 6, 2003 Styled somewhat like a Belgian kriek, however there was more emphasis on the wheat and less (it seemed) on the yeast strain. As the name would imply, there was plenty of cherries in the nose and in the taste. Reddish, copper appearance. Nicely balanced. Smoothe finish. obxdude10 (1387), Reading, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 16, 2002 Very fruity aroma, the cherries are very overpowering, didn’t keep much of a head, very crisp & clean
