Sam Adams Cherry Wheat

Rating: 0 out of 10

This beer is bad. How bad? I poured 4 of the 6 bottles down the sink. A single tear was shed because I hate to see any beer go to waste, but this was undrinkable bad. Too hoppy, too much cherry - it was almost medicinal. Yes - almost like that cherry robitussin you had to choke down as a kid. I think any kind of fruity beer should have a hint of fruit, not an overpowering taste of fruit. Don't waste your money on a six pack or a single. Sam Adams can make some good beer, this just isn't one of them.

I think you are completely wrong with this review. It is a great tasting beer, I found only a hint of cherry flavour, definately not overpowering as you stated. I am a fan of wheat beers and tried this one for the first time. Enjoyed it a lot.

I think you either love this beer or you hate it. I had always said it tastes like children's tylenol. Totally medicinal. Artificial cherry flavor. I hate it.
