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 translucent copper amber with a one finger fizzy yellowish head. Gone in a flash. Smells like wet dog, I guess thats the attempt at blueberry, lightly grassy, mildly sweet, . The flavor is crisp, a light grassy bitterness, mild blueberry, not very sweet, a little corn flavor. Flavor is better than aroma. Not terrible to drink, a little crisp. Doable.

Amber pour medium head with some spotty lace. Grains and blueberries on the nose. Blueberry flavor seems forced by using syrup rather then fresh. If that is the case its ashamed since it is made im Maine

I thought this was a good beer, but not a session beer for me. It was better on tap then out of the bottle. it wasnt the best blueberry beer that i have tasted. enjoyable but again, not m favorite in the genre.

12oz bottle, purchased at the brewery. Poured medium amber, a bit hazy, topped with an off-white head. Aroma of blueberry, malt, wheat, and perfume. Wheat and floral perfume flavor, with some blueberry, white pepper, earth and malt. Finish is somewhat astringent.

It was like breakfast in a bottle. Yum, but don’t over due it or you’ll look like that girl in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
