So, after enjoying the five Lakefront Cherry Lagers that strangely found themselves in the six-pack basket of Lakefront Organic E.S.B. I bought, I decided I should try what I’d actually set out to buy.
They say:
One of the few beers brewed in the world using 100% certified organic ingredients. A classic British style Extra Special Bitter that is amber in color with cascade hop flavor that gives it a refreshing taste.
Pours a nice golden color with some red highlights. Head is modest and quickly reduces to a small layer of foam.
Aroma is biscuity. It’s medium-bodied, with a good amount of carbonation. There’s a distinctive fruitiness in the finish (pears?) and a nice bit of hop bite on the end.
Pretty darn good, and rather refreshing on these recent 100-degree days.

I was recently at my beer retailer trying to choose some new beers to try. I spotted a six-pack of Lakefront Brewery Organic E.S.B. Excellent! ESB is one of my favorite styles, and we’ve written about other organic beers, including during a recent Session. In the cart it goes!
A few days later, I pulled a bottle out and poured myself a glass. I sat down at my computer to do some work. I took a healthy quaff…
That’s not an ESB.
What the heck? It turns out that five of the six bottles in the basket were actually Lakefront’s Cherry Lager.
Well, we’re generally not ones for fruit beers around here, but it’s been hot and I’m in the mood for something different.
It pours a nice lager color with red highlights. I barely get any cherry aroma at all but it definitely comes out in the flavor. Unlike some other fruit beers I’ve had recently, this one isn’t out of balance.
Not bad at all. A refreshing choice for the hot summer months.
