Bethlehem Brew Works Blueberry Belch

This is one interesting beer. The blueberries in the nose are a little too much. It overpowers the senses before you can even take a sip. There is definitely a lot of berries in the body of flavors as well. This was definitely a unique brew.

20080613 Tap at brewpub. Mild berry flavor and not much in the aroma. I guess that is appropriate for blueberries as they are not that potent when fresh. Bit of tartness and a touch milky. Amusing color is blue tinged from the fruit.

On tap. Lots of blueberry in the aroma. Yellow amber color. Low in flavor. Dryish. Easy to drink.

Cloudy light purple color with no head. Blueberry puree aroma-very sweet. Some carbonation. Tastes of blueberry puree with some malts. Could not drink a full pint of this.

Poured a murky purple amber color with a small, off white head that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of blueberries, vanilla, light citrus, and toasted dough. Taste was dry, toffee, bready, wheaty, and sweet blueberries throughout.

Draft from the brewpub. This is one ugly beer, almost a 1 rating but there was some head to it. Not sure why a blueberry beer pours a hazy orange with a pinkish hue but man was this ugly. Aroma of blueberry and malts. Flavor is like the aroma with the malts being more dominant and the blueberry makes it’s prescence known but isn’t overpowering. Drinkable beer and to quote an unnamed RB member "well it is the best blueberry I’ve ever had". Well after checking my ratings I am sorry to say I have to disagree with that.

On tap at BBW. Pours a hazy pinkish/orange with a medium creamy/bubbly off white head that left some lacing. Aroma of blueberries, pie crust, bready and not much else. Flavor a match of the same, some wheat and very blueberry.

On tap at the BBW Brew Pub. Poured a deeper and cloudy amberish color with an averaged sized purple tinted white head. Aromas of fresh blueberries. I like the blueberry aroma. Tastes of blueberries with some graininess.
