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.

Had this one bottled in a mix pack from World Market in St. Charles, Illinois, thanks Mom and Dad! Hazy, orange-reddish pour with a medium foamy tan head, nice lacing, great, tart nose of blue and strawberries with some baked bread, nuanced flavor of berries, clover honey, spicyness of cinnamon. Light, milky finish. This is a very good beer.

Very dark golden orange in color with a thick off-white head. Aroma is strong blueberry and wheat. Flavor is grassy with a mild hint of blueberry and pine. Slightly bitter with a very strong metallic aftertaste.

A definite blueberry aroma to this one. Copper colored with a moderate head. The flavor is somewhat sweet/sour with a rather mild blueberry presence. This a well balance thirst quencher if little else. Not bad.

Bottle and draft in Bar Harbor. Very well done fruit beer. The aroma was very heavy on blueberries but the flavour focused on beer more than fruit. What a concept! Really refreshing. Guys, it it okay to drink it.

POurs to a light golden color with a thin white head that dissipates quickly and leaves little lacing. Aroma is not real strong, but is a pleasant blueberry fruity scent. Mouthfeel is relatively thin and slightly carbonated. The flavor was a bit disappointing, as it tasted more like artificial flavoring than true blueberry. All and all, an okay summer cooler, but one better left to the ladies.
