Belhaven Blueberry (Bottle)

Well, With its Blueberry (obvious) smeel after the poor... poors a very lite head, realy nothing spectacular about this beer. Its a pilsner with a blueberry twist... not realy my game...

Pours an unappetizing pale straw color, and I mean pale. Smells like rotting blueberries and stale beer. Can’t put my finger on the flavour but it isn’t good. Only good thing about it is that on the finish you do finallly get to experience something resembling blueberries. Cheers!

From bottle; poured a very light gold with a lasting white head. Aroma was very spicy. Flavour was very mild and bland; I got very little sense of blueberries. I won’t try this again.

500ml bottle from the <a href=http://www.lcbo.com/ target=blank>LCBO in Peterborough, Ontario. Light golden in colour, lasting white head, some light sporadic lacing. The aroma had lots of noticable blueberries during the pour, grassy hops, grains, quite sweet. The flavour is very sweet, some noticable blueberries, syrupy, grainy, sticky. Thick coating mouthfeel, medium body, gassy carbonation. Finishes very sweet, long. Too sweet to be overly enjoyable and something I won’t be going back to.

Best Before October 2007.

bottle: Pours a pale gold with a significant bubbly white head. Upon opening the bottle there was a significant blast of blueberry aroma, though once poured and settled the aroma was more of an earthy straw and malt character with light hints of berry. Flavour was pretty standard malt lagerish with a berry sweetness in the finish. Nothing overly impressive. I had high hopes, but was a smidge dissapointed.

Bottle. Pours a clear golden-yellow body with a medium fluffy white head. The aroma is powerful though not all that pleasant - very candyish in it’s blueberry fruitiness. Perfumey with some kind of jamminess to it. Very light and bland flavour. All I can really get from this is sweet water with a little bit of dry blueberry substance. It finishes oddly in a kind of metallic/bitter twang. A small sample is sufficient.

pours a light clear yellow colorwith a big foamy head with quicky dissappates. a small hint of blue berrys in the aroma. not much tastes at first but leaves a strong blue berry after tasts. not bad for blue berrys and beer?

Bouteille de 500 ml. Blonde claire, (aucun signe de la présence de bleuet à l’oeil) avec un mince collet blanc. Arôme prononcé de bleuets. Bonne base de lager honnête, rafraîchissante, peu houblonnée, dominée par l’extrait de bleuet. Elle ne réinvente pas la roue, une petite lager aromatisée pour l’été.
