Very dark not to say black stout with tan ring on top. Strong blueberry aroma, mild roast behind, late sweetness. Medium bodied, soft texture, good smooth roast, berry character. Interesting. Nicely balanced.

Bottle. Dark black body with a tannish small head. The aroma has tons of fluffy blueberries like a nice muffin. There’s also some lacticity and mild roast. The flavour is chocolatey to begin with and has some astringent richness to that end. There are touches of berry fruit in the finish but only slightly so. Quite roasty and smooth overall. Solid.

Aroma is more raspberry or strawberry to me than blueberry? Also has lots of coffee present too. Black, with a small cappuccino head. Flavour again is berries, but I didn’t find it to be blueberry, roast coffee also. Full bodied, bitter as can be. Fantastic! Thank You mds!

This beer sucked ass. Pours black with a nice mocha head with some lacing. Aroma was blueberry muffins and pancake syrup...smoked malt and diary. Flavor was fuirty blueberries, chemical sweetener, and burnt chocolate. Starchy mouthfeel.

some funky shit going on in the flavor. heavy cloying sweetness, medium bitterness, paper napkin. aroma’s kinda crazy. at first pure blueberries from a metre away. a yard. then it was awful, then it was better after the nose accommodated. there’s some crazy off-taste i can’t really identify. no alcohol taste, but it’s a meek 4.5abv. oh right, most imporantly, it’s got walker brother’s blueberry waffles - not muffins - all over it.

Enourmous blueberry syrup aroma. Deep black pour with brow head. Flavor is weird, somewhat potpourri. Vegetable spice flavor. Where’s the blueberry? Slight roasted chocolate. Not very good. I would never want another one of these.

Bottle. Aroma heavy blueberry syrup and slight bit of coffee. Poured a nice deep dark brown with a chocolately head. Flavor was good, coffee,chocolate, burnt malts and tinge of blueberry. Palate was medium bodied and finished with a bitter blueberry bite. Overall not too bad.

pours very thick dark black with a nice dark brown head. has the look of an imperial stout almost totally opaque. strong chocolate aroma with a hit of blueberries and coffee. flavor chocolate with a hint of blueberries. medium body. lightly carbonated. finish slightly acidic blueberry and bitter coffee. i was very impressed with this beer. lovely balance. great beer. reminds me of blueberry and chocolate chip pancakes with some coffee. fantastic.
