Commercial Description:
The base beer we brewed was an amber ale, which would be tasty in its own right. It will be a bit darker than the Pipe Organ Pale and a bit lighter than the Pious Monk Dunkel. The Blueberry Honey Ale will be light to medium in body with a slight caramel note. The hops used were Nobel hops which are very delicate. The hop additions were added sparingly so as not to overpower other aromas. The bitterness was kept low in order to showcase the malt. In order to lend additional character, we brewed with 120 lb. of Blueberry honey. Remember the honey character won't come through as sweetness. It will be noticed mostly in the nose as a distinct yet delicate honey aroma.

This is a deep, rich amber beer that pours with a somewhat thin head. The aroma is very sweet, like honey, but has some hops nose as well. The taste is smooth and lightly sweet, with an amazing amount of blueberry overtones.
