On draught at the ABR 07 in Minneapolis, MN. Pours a clear reddish indigo brew with a light pink head that quickly dissolves to a fine film and ring. Aroma of tart blueberries, some light bready malt and flowery hops. Taste is light to medium bodied, lightly carbonated with a more wheat malt flavor with a hidden blueberry flavor. Finish is slightly sweet with a lingering berry aftertaste. An interesting fruit beer.

I didn’t get much out of the nose, I was kind of dissapointed as I really like Town Hall’s blueberry aroma. Lots of blueberry in the flavour, bit of soap, hints of purple in the colour.

[Draft, ABR ’07] Pours red with a pink head. Aroma is strong of blueberry. Taste is quite sweet and about the same as the aroma, but with some malt in there too. Fairly high carbonation. Medium mouthfeel. Maybe it was because it was such a change of pace from all the bourbon beers I was having, but I really enjoyed this.

A good fruit beer. Purple color but clear. Moderate carbonation. Good blueberry aroma and good blueberry flavor. Some sugar, a little sweet. This has good, real fruit flavor, and because the base is a wheat beer, there is sweet wheat and light spice as well.
