I need to preface this review by saying that I am not a fan of cherry at all - and while I though this beer might be subtle, it wasn't.

Slightly cloudy, typical wheat beer appearance,with a half finger of white and lasting head.

Lots of cherry in the aroma. And I do mean lots. Almost cough syrup flashback levels. Although I'm not a big fan of cherry flavor at all, in this case the wheat beer and the cherry flavors are more or less equal. I would prefer less cherry (much less, on fact), but if you are a fan of cherry, this may do it for you.
