Pours black and thick, blueberry definately somewhat natural aroma, and oily roast aroma. Above avrage mouthfeel, almost no head, certainly no lace. A decent dry stout, assisted by some blueberries.

12 ounce bottle shared at Dickinsonbeer’s brewing fest. Very dark black with brown head. Rich chocolate spicy fruity blueberry aroma. Rich roasted coffee chocolate mild fruity blueberry and strong, call me crazy, anise spice or licorice. Blueberry is artfully subdued. Nice texture. Very good.

Bottle, pours black with a short tan head. Surprisingly (to me) the blueberries power their way thru the coffee and chocolate.

Courtesy of After4ever, thanks Tom. It’s pitch black with a dark brown, small, creamy head. The aroma has notes of roasted malt, blueberries and candy. The sweet flavor has notes of roasted malt, licorice, blueberries, perfumed candy and in the slightly dry finish, there are hints of coffee – quite charming.

Bottle courtesy of BMan1113VR in this year’s summer secret santa. Thanks! Pours a viscous midnight black with a dark brown head. Just gorgeous. One of the most beautiful looking stouts I’ve come across, but the head falls off a bit too quickly for me. Light sweet blueberries, chocolate, and very faint hints of roast. The body is a little thinner than its looks belie, but it’s not thin by any means. Really nice mouthfeel, smooth and supple. Chocolate, blueberry, subdued roast character that leans more towards bitter cocoa than char. A little like a dark chocolate truffle with blueberries in it. Finishes with more lingering bitter dark chocolate flavor. Outstanding.
