Sweet beer?

Question

Ok, this is my last posting. I've tried all sorts of beers that are considered sweet. The best I've found so far is the South Shore, Herbal Cream. I guess its as sweet as it gets? I'm struggling to find something I like with carbonation. As stated in last post, I don't like wine, or wine coolers. I just want something alcoholic that is somewhat sweet and won't cause heartburn! I've tried alot and can't seem to find one that I like! I don't like skunky. I like sweet but it can't be too sweet or I get heart burn.....blue moon is ok....I'd like a bit sweeter......someone has to have some idea!!

There are several belgian beers that are sweet- raspberry and pear flavored are most common. Also, Hard Ciders are like apple cider and are pretty good- like Hornsby's. AND, anheiser bush just came out with fruit infused beers, that taste like fruit sodas! Sam Adams has a cherry beer, not TOO cherry, and there's another called strawberry blonde that faintly tastes like strawberries.

I like honey brown as well... but that's more BEER tasting. I've been to a brewery that had a honey cream beer, and it was delicious- but it was only made at that brewery.

Lambic fruit beers, which are brewed with whole fruit and fermented with wild yeasts that float around in the air, are incredibly sweet and also quite delicious. My favorite is frambois lambic, the raspberry nectar of the gods, but they also come in peach, cherry, black current and apple. They are quite expensive, however- running like 9 buck for 750ml.

UFO makes a pretty good raspberry heffeweisen, Newport Storm makes a blueberry beer. Seasonally Blue Moon does a pumpkin beer. Magic Hat's circus boy is a very pleasantly sweet heffeweisen and they make this new stuff called Miller Chill which has "a hint of lime and salt" which is very lite and sweet but has a kind of lame wine-coolery thing going on.

You could try some good hard ciders- Strongbow is the best and is dry so it probably wouldn't cause heart burn. Woodchuck ciders are super sweet. The Pear is nice, the Amber is better (darker and drier). Again, they border a bit on the wine cooler side of things, but are a little bit tougher. Also try Mead, which is fermented honey and is really tasty

Answer 3

Do they still make Genese Cream Ale? I used to drink that years ago and it is very nice.

Answer 4

If you can find it ( I know they have it in Florida ) try Lost Coast's "Great White Ale". It's very citrusy and one of the more sweeter beers I've every had.

Answer 5

Try putting coca cola in your beer.I have mine half -half.It takes away that bitter taste.
