Samuel Smiths Organic Cherry Fruit Beer

Brewed by Melbourn Brothers (Samuel Smith)
Style: Fruit Beer
Stamford, England

Pours a five+ finger light pink head that fades slowly leaving a good lace. Cloudy red/amber color. Medium carbonation and medium bodied. Cherry nose. Flavor is sweet cherry but not cloying, hops are hidden. Good session beer. $5.59 for a 550ml bottle from Manchester Wine and Liquors Manchester, CT.

From a bottle poured ruby color with a small head. Nice tart cherry flavor with tart finish.

hazy orange color, pinkish, fluffy head, somewhat lacy. nose of cherries with a malty undertone. tart cherry flavor, not at all off-putting or cloying, some maltiness afterward. medium bodied, tart cherry finish which i was surprised to find i enjoyed. i think i’ll remember this one for relief from a scratchy throat. maybe i’ll come up with a cooking recipe for it. single bottle from liquor depot in monee.

Taste is dominated by cherry cola. Very slight tartness in the finish, more would be nice. Fizzy and highly carbonated with a thin body. Not bad though, certainly drinkable.

Pours a clear an amber reddish colour with a light creamy pinkish head. Aroma of sweet cherries and fruit juice. Flavour of cherry fruit juice, and a little malt flavor. I enjoyed the cherry flavor but there’s not much else going on here. A little tartness would’ve helped.

Bottle. High creamy and lasting pink head. Hazy orang red body. Powerful sweet malty cherry aroma with nutty notes. Astonishingly high carbonation. Acidic sweet cherry flavor with a short aftertaste.

Bottle from some Sam Smith’s pub in Peterborough. Red, orange colour, lasting beige head. Sweet cherry almond aroma, reminds me of a Bakewell Tart. I mean way too wweet. I can’t believe all the sweetness comes from the fruit. Whereas the Raspberry had some interesting tartness, this is straight up cherryade with some almond to go with it. Not unpleasant, it’s a tasty alcopop. Rather good in fact in that way. The bottle lasted oh, about 3 minutes. but the rotting of my teeth lasted much longer. Would happily buy this for a girl such as Sim who likes sweet fruit drinks.

Bottle. Wheaty red pour, good aroma of sweet cherry and tons of carbonation. Flavor is some sweet cherry and not much else. A good beer, not overly sweet (which I liked), but not really worth the $6 asking price IMO.
