Commercial Description:
This is very similar to the raspberry only with blueberries. The blueberry flavor is a little more subtle than the raspberry. We serve this for a couple of months in the summer only.

12oz bottle-A cloudy hazy golden body with a small white head and an aroma of blueberries and more blueberries. Taste is the same with the blueberries being almost overpowering. I prefer the overpowering to almost no taste of the flavoring. Nice tasting beer.

Aroma is somewhat light...fruity and malty. Flavor is all blueberry...nothing to offset the blueberry. The best way to sum up this beer is that I don’t enjoy cherries, but find some beers that incorporate cherry flavors to be very enjoyable as they are able to create a nice mesh of flavors in which the cherry flavor does not overly dominate; that being said, if you don’t like blueberries, don’t go anywhere near this beer, because the blueberry flavor is overpowering

Draught at the brewery. Very light colored with small bubbled frothy head. Almost imperceptible blueberry in the aroma. Flavor was sweet, with an o-putting corn flavor in the finish.

Draught sampled at the brewery. Beer was clear, light-to-medium oxidized gold with a tiny, white, total and rapidly diminishing. The aroma was malty with a light note of husky toasted grain; Hoppy with light notes of tea and honey; Moderate fresh blueberry note. The flavor was lightly bitter, moderately sweet with a long, lightly bitter/grippy, moderately sweet finish. The body was light, the texture was watery and the carbonation was average. The beer itself wasn’t a stand-out, but the blueberry quality was genuine and pretty.
