None of my friends do, but I like them. My favorite are the cherry and raspberry flavored ones. I also had a bananna flavored one one time that someone made and it was quite good. Anyone else a fan of them?

I don't even like beer it gives me a stomach ache so I don't think I'd like fruit flavored beer. it sounds gross if you don't even like beer!
I like wine coolers and that's about it.

Kahlua and cream is pretty good too.

mmm... beer! I had a rasberry Leinenkugel a few weeks ago that was delicious... so fruity that it hardly tasted like beer. I'm also a bog fan of a balck & tan made w/ a pear cider.

As in Kriek (belgian cherry flavored beer) or Framboise (belgian raspberry beer)?


I've also tried blueberry beer, but it got too fruity after a while. I had a pint of it and all I needed was 8 oz.

Nope. I also didn't really like wine until recently when I found a peach wine at a winery. The first wine I have really enjoyed

i had a raspberry wheat beer at applebee's a while back. it was very good. it wasn't super fruity tasting like i thought it would be. that's the most exotic i've gotten with beer. leinenkeugel's honeyweiss beer is good too. well, any of their wheat beer is.

I don't like beer, but I love Kriek and Framboise Lambic...they don't taste at all like beer


I think we had a pear beer too, but it wasn't as good as the cherry and raspberry. I also love a good hard cider

Only if it's Belgian, as they seem to have mastered the art of making fruit-flavored beers like nobody else. Watch the alcoholic content, though - some of those Belgian beers are 30 proof, or more.

Check the type of grocery stores that well...cater to alcohol. There is one by our house that is a small store, but it has a department dedicated to the winea and beer tasters/lovers. So you can buy all sorts of drinks from just about any where in the world.

There is also a fairly large liquor store by my house that offers Kriek and Frambois (Lambic - that's the brand's name). Check out the larger liqour stores. Oh and watch the expiration date if they have one.

I may stop and get one on the way home.
