Beer 2 in the six beer sampler served at the Shipwrecked restuarant. Poured into a small plastic cup (argh!).
Beer is a medium amber color, but still very light. Slightly draker than the blonde ale served here.
A fruity cherry nose in the smell, as you'd expect.
Taste is watery, hints of malt, bundled with the cherry taste. Some tartness coming through. The cherry taste is ok - it doesn't quite feel natural, but its not offensive either.
Closes like water - the cherry taste is kept in check, and this is a moderately drinkable offering.

I love cherries. I love beer. I love fruit beers. This does not get any of them quite right. There are better cherry wheat beers out there. Choose one other than this. I hate to say it but... not so good.

Not recommended. Tried on tap at their brewpub, tastes like miller lite with cherry flavor added. No body, or fruity spicy characteristics I expected from a wheat. The Door County cherries were what caught my eye, but just tastes like a clear beer with cherry flavor. Saw it at a retail store in Door County, turns out the cherry flavor is partly done with artificial flavors. Come on, guys.

Shipwrecked poured a hazy copper color with red hues, a very small, almost non existent head. Big fresh cherry aroma. The taste is creamy, mostly fresh cherry flavors. Body is a little flat. Overall its a big cherry like beer, good for a hot summer day.

Pours hazed amber with soda-like carbonation and a quickly disappearing head. Virtually no lacing sticks. The "artificial color" doesn't look quite "right".
The smell is of sweet-tart cherries. Mild and pleasant.
The taste is of sweet cherries with a tart touch in the finish.
The initial "fizz" fades to a rather flat feel. Smooth despite that. Not watery.
A mild cherry wheat. Nothing "special", rather "run-of-the-mill". The appearance and feel certainly need improvement. Otherwise, decent overall.
