This beer is brewed with wheat malt barley with blueberry and mullenberry flavor added to it. Once, you open the bottle, it has a very sweet scent. it smells like blueberry and mullenberry muffins altogether. The best fruit flavored beer I’ve ever tasted.

Pours with a white, pillowy, two-finger head, fades quickly and leaves a good lace. Medium carbonation and light bodied. Light amber clear color. Nose is very fruity. Starts on the sweet side with blueberry flavor and finishes with a prickly tartness. Good summer ale. $1.55 for a 12oz bottle from Colonial Spirits, Acton, MA

The aroma had big elderberries and slight blueberries, and a slight maltiness. THe flavor had elderberries, blueberries, slight maltiness, and a slight vinious note. The beer poured a light yellow w/ thin lasting head and lacing. The mouthfeel was light and carbonated.

This one took me by surprise. Smells like bluberry pie, right out of the oven. Berry also quite evident in the aftertaste. Tastes a lot like a wheat, although more bitter. A unique choice for the summer.

Sparkling clear, straw-colored ale. The nose is refreshing and releases huge notes of blueberries and subtle notes of hops. Well-balanced flavor. Fruity, citrusy, moderately bitter and a bit thin. Light-bodied with a creamy mouthfeel and fizzy carbonation. Short, crisp, fruity, clean finish. Great beer for Summertime "porch sittin'".

Clear light amber in color. Really loved the nose on this one with blueberry predominant, touch of hops as well. Lots of citrus and berry with a decent hops balance to keep from being cloying. Light bodied with a crisp finish. Could easily down a few on a hot summer day.

Gold, no head. Big blueberry aroma as soon as the bottle is opened. Berry flavor too, but more restrained than the aroma. hints of lemon and grainy flavors. dryish finish.

I’m a fan of fruit flavored beers - and not afraid to admit it. This was pretty good. I was afraid that the berry flavor would be overpowering, but it wasn’t. Different, yet good.
