Black and Blue was an interesting beer to say the least. It was nicely done as far as fruit beers go. The color was a nice red body with a pink head. The taste was still very much consistent with beer with a note of the blackberries. The aroma was inviting with a berry smell and sweet notes throughout. I honestly expected something more like the Fort, but this one was a solid beer with a nice hint of fruit. Well Done!

Nov 28, 2008 750 mL bottle. Pours a deep amber, no head. Aroma is malty with lots of tart dark fruits. Flavor is sweet on the front and finishes tart. Not a huge fan.

Nov 27, 2008 750ml bottle. Dark brownish color, slightly rosey head. Very fruity and somewhat tart aroma. Not overly sweet, the berries are very prominent though. Very tasty.

Nov 27, 2008 Sampled from a 25.6 oz brown bottle this beer poured a dark ruby color with a small pink head and multiple floaters. The aroma was interestingly tart, bitter, sour and funky with vague fruits. The flavor was bitter, tart and tangy with a moderate dry berry element and a funky musty undertone. The finish was long musty berry. Nice.

Nov 16, 2008 750 ml bottle. Poured amber purple in color with a very little white head. Aroma of berries, and a fairly sweet malt. Tastes of Blackberries, blueberries, Belgian yeast, with some lightly tart fruits and a fairly sweet malt base. Finishes a little warm with the 10% abv.
