Bottle. slight blueberry nose. Nice stout roastyness with a slight trace of the fruit to make it interesting. Quite enjoyable. Be sure to share it with a special friend.

Thanks to Zinc Tuba for the bottle. Some flavors need to remain traditional with a line drawn somewhere and this is one of them. Blueberry shouldn’t be with a dark roasted, chocolatey stout and this one proves it. It didn’t complement the blueberry at all.

Bottle. Pours a deep black with a thin tan head. Nose is lightly scented with blueberries and cooked, roasted notes. I am not a fan of stouts but I thought the blueberry would take the edge off those traditional stout flavorws I do not care for. It did. There was just enough sweetenedeblueberry flavor to join with the coffee baqckground to make this an enjoyable sipper. I would not mind having it again. Thanks to Sprinkle for the bottle.

12oz bottle acquired in trade with atpayne (thanks!). Poured a dark black color with red edges and a small sized brown head. Aromas of blueberries, blueberry pie crust, roast, and chocoalte. I really liked the way the blueberry was done in the aroma. Tastes of blueberries, roast, and some coffee.

Thanks to hopdog. Pours a dark black with a foamy/creamy tan head. Aroma of blueberry, various spices, cinnamon, all-spice, nutmeg and even some alcohol despite the low abv. Flavors of the same with some more cocoa and coffee coming through. The blueberry was very interesting.

Thanks to Beerdrenched for sharing yet another enjoyable beer. Pours almost black with a dark brown head. Aroma has lots of blueberries and dark chocolate. Medium / light body witha a small amount of carbonation. Taste has roasted malt with dark blueberries. There is also some dark chocolate and tanginess. Finish has roaste and light blueberries and keeps with the chocolate aspects. Very enjoyable fruit beer.

Draft sample at MBGF. Black color with a small light brown head that diminished quickly with fair lacing. Moderate blueberry toasted bread aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture. Medium complex blueberry dark chocolate flavor with a smooth sweet finish of moderate duration.

Giant blueberry aroma. Flavor was big on blueberry, chocolate, maybe a hint of coffee. Slight dry finish. Very good, like your favorite dessert.
