Bottle: Pours black with a medium size brown head that is mostly lasting leaving nice lacing in my Flute glass. Aroma is in the name with the Blueberry and also has hints of chocolate and roasted malts. Flavor has a creamy blueberry taste with a chocolate finish that has a mild bitterness. Well balanced, very drinkable and delicious!

Bottle. What to expect? Apparently one hell of a stout. Pours black as midnight with a rich brown head. My first thought is of a blueberry pie crust with traces of chocolate and plenty of dark roasts. Finishes with a lingering bitterness. This brewery knows stouts.

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.

12oz bottle. Pours black with a small chocolate head. Awesome aromas of chocolate, blueberry, and toffee. The light blueberry flavor was just right, balanced by a heavy malt presence and a tiny bit of hops.

Someone mentioned Dark Horse overcoming the feminine stigma of fruit beers with this one. That person is right! I had this at the brewery and it is awesome out of the tap. Blurberry flavor is definitely present with hints of chocolate and smoky bitterness. Great stout!

Very nice. Black pour with a small amber head. Aroma is quite heavy with blueberry but the taste is not so much so. I do taste a creamy chocolate and coffee. Smooth lingering slightly bitter finish. Very drinkable.

Bottle at the RBSG09 grand tasting. Black with a tan head. Awesome blueberry aroma. The flavor is a dry mix of dark chocolate and blueberries. Medium bodied and smooth. I like how they packed a ton of fruit flavor that perfectly compliments the chocolate without the beer being sweet and sticky. By flavor impact, I guessed this was almost twice the strength.

Pours a deep black color. The nose consisted of bitter chocolate, coffee, and quite strong in blueberry. It comes across the palate with chocolate, coffee, and subtle hints of blueberry. Finished smooth with a nice stout bitterness. Their was just enough blueberry in this one. The blueberry doesn’t over power the other characteristics of the beer.
