Commercial Description:
A light fruit ale, made with Maine wild blueberries. As opposed to many of the sweeter fruit beers on the market, our addition of fresh Maine wild blueberries in this light ale yields a subtle blueberry aroma, without the sweet aftertaste. A mixture of the following Mutton malts, pale, crystal, and Munich, are combined with wheat to give this ale its lighter body, and we only use minimal amounts of Target and Willamette hops.

Pours a clear ruby brown with minimal head. Nose is very faint with berries...but I am not sure if I am getting blueberries at all. I do get a slight metallic edge. Flavor is hoppy with a metallic tone and not really much berry action going on. Is more sugary and syrupy than anything. But no real blueberry stuff going on. Feel is a bit thick with typical carbonation. As a blueberry brew, I have to say this is not drinkable. Where is the blueberry?

Nice, sweet blueberry smell. Slight hint of blueberry and hop taste. Would drink regularly.

They’re definitely not lying when they say this is a blueberry beer. Since I’m not a fan of blueberries I cannot rate it very high. Nothing great about this one, but nothing awful either.

Amber body with big offwhite head. Sweet blueberry aroma with a bit of hops in the background. Light refreshing malty flavor with a little blueberry in the finish. Exceeded my expectations.

12 oz bottle split with my monday Jredmond. Great fruit beer. Pours a reddish copper body. Aroma is strong, most accurately, blueberries muffins. taste is blueberries at first followed by a IPA type finish. I would get this baby again.
