Bottle: Hazy deep golden with a white film of head. Definite blueberry presence in the aroma- quite natural with a soft sweetness and more skin/tannin character along with a light grainy pale malt touch. Simple. Very light body- a bit vacant in texture. Dry, however in the flavor with a touch of blueberry skin and dry pale grains. No discerning hop character to speak of- it’s still drinkable despite it’s lack of body and depth.

Dec 28, 2009 Bottle. Pours a hazy amber with a medium sized white head. Light wheat and soft blueberry with a touch of vanilla. Little bit thin and somewhat empty, but no glaring off flavors. Wheat, light sweetness. Finishes up with a little bit of sweetness and a light tartness.

Nov 11, 2009 Bottle. Pours a foggy golden orange color with a small white head. Light sweet malty biscuit and toast notes with a subtle hint of blueberry muffins. Palate is a little thin, but is crisp and refreshing. Flavors are sweet malty biscuity notes and a nice subtle, natural blueberry flavor.

Oct 24, 2009 12 ml bottle courtesy of coldbrewky. Thanks man. Pours a hazy orange-yellow color. The aroma is big and bold with fresh berries, I get more blackberry than blueberry. The taste profile is similar to the nose, I get plenty of blackberry and just a hint of blueberry. But overall the taste does not quite live up to the foreshadowing of the aroma. The hops provide a nice biter complexity and prevent this from turning into some overly sweet fruit beer. The palate is a bit thin and watery. The finish is long with lingering berry flavors. Overall: Not on par with New Glarus’ fruit beers but still quite good.

Aug 31, 2009 12oz bottle, thanks to summer secret Santa. Pours slightly hazy orange amber, with a thin off white head. Somewhat tart blueberry aroma, with some lemon and spice. Flavors of grain, caramel, white grape juice, and blueberry skin. Thin to medium bodied. Like most other blueberry ales I’ve tried, the aroma is more enticing than the flavor.

Aug 30, 2009 From a bottle into a pint glass. Pours light brown with a little head which quickly dissipates. No lacing. The best part of this beer is the smell. It REALLY smells like fresh picked blueberries. Unfortunately, the taste does not live up to the smell. It tastes like mildly flavored blueberry Budweiser. Very disappointing. As a novelty, I’m glad I tried it but I would not drink again and certainly not buy it again.

May 15, 2009 This beer has a tremendous real blueberry aroma and a nice, lightly sweet blueberry flavor. Gets a bit cloying and over the top fruity after the first few sips for me, so I wouldn’t want more than one at a sitting, but it’s still pretty good.
