#13: Sam Adams Cherry Wheat Lager
Sam Adams: Cherry wheat lager
American
You know what, call me a Lily pad or a nancy boy but I really liked this beer. Now you may ask; Why would enjoying this beer get you labeled as a pansy? Because, this thing is like the fruit punch of beers…and it’s damn good. When you pop the cap you can instantly smell the many fruity notes, including Cherry of course. This is just a fun beer to drink. It’s sweet, smooth, not very strong, and all around refreshing.
I am disappointed that I didn’t discover this beer early on in summer as this is a perfect summer beer…hell it smells like sunshine and warm weather (not sweaty and disgusting but happy and filled with possibilities). I would definitely try this again and would even considering buying this in a case, that’s not what I can say about a lot of the beers I’ve tried already.
Sam Adams is a respected beer company and I’ve haven’t tried a beer of theirs that I’ve disliked, but this was a nice surprise. Definitely a great starter beer, especially for chicks. Rest assured to say that this beer will be on tongue soon. It left an impressive mark on my taste buds. I can imagine a lot of guys would be turned off by this beer because it doesn’t fulfill their macho quota. It is sad that we live in a society where needless displays of machismo are abundant and constant validation of manhood, often, leaves a boy unable to develop as a fully grown adult, rendering a repressed man-boy who is incapable of being emotionally articulate.
That’s why I’ve never seen this beer in a bar…but even if it was I wouldn’t order it…I don’t want to be caught with no sissy beer. I ain’t no fruit bag, I’ll drink this shit at home only. Am I paranoid? Who knows.
Now let’s hear from our judges:
P: The smell is very relaxing. Good party beer. Beer you have with a date.
S: I like it. Very nice taste and smell. Beer you can have at home to relax and not get drunk on.
Pair it with: Sunshine, dry fruits, Salty meats, burgers, Sheryl Crowe CD.
Score: 8 out of 10 sexy
One of my favs as well. Sam Adam’s does a great job with the majority of their seasonal & specialty brews.
