The cherry wheat. Damn. Not usually a big fan of flavored beers, but this stuff is excellent.

One of my personal goals over the holidays is to consume as much of this as is possible. Projected amount: 20-30 bottles over two-week period.

Holiday libation of choice? Anyone?

I find Guinness is perfect for just about every holiday...

Sam Adams Cherry wheat is one of the worst beers (to my palette) that I've tasted... A friend told me that night, over the beer stolen from another student's dorm room, that, "life is too short for bad beer."

Lately I have a taste for Metaxa Greek brandy...www.metaxa.com

Fruit and beer do not belong together ever.

I'm not a big beer guy, have liked most sam Adams variants I have tried though, will try this one soon,

I personally like to stick to Crown and coke, Jager ( ice cold shots), or 151 and pepsi

Um. . .you do realize that hops, the main ingredient in beer, is a flowering fruit, right?
