| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 11, 2009 Brewmasters Collection. Light golden pour into thick foamy head that dissipates into a good ring of lacing which melts down the glass with every drink. Initial cloudiness fades into carbonated bubbles rising from the bottom of the glass into a pool of foam. Aroma of malty fruit with hints in the flavor of light hoppiness as the glass warms. wmubronco1992 (192), Coldwater, Michigan, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 9, 2009 Bottle. Pours a honey color. Medium white head. Suprisingly good lacing. Fruity (blackberry) aroma. Pleasant wheat beer persona with light blackberry taste. Nice malty mouthfeel. Overall a very nice fruit beer. Excellent for drinking on a summer evening. Just wish there was something to distinguish it from other decent wheat brews. NomDeBeer (402), Maryland, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | May 8, 2009 Pours a fairly clear gold color with a small white head. Aroma is blackberries, and coriander at first. But eventually it starts to smell more like plastic. Taste is mostly wheat with some coriander and blackberries. Decent initial flavor, but the finish is very fast and disappointing, needs more of something. Definitely drinkable, but also pretty unremarkable to really rave about. Could be a refreshing summer beer though. Thin palate. DarkSong (115), Dacula, Georgia, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 8, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pours a pale golden color with a quickly vanishing small white head. Smells of wheat and berries. Tastes of hay, citrus, flowers, bread and blackberries. A refreshing and pleasant beer. joeyplush (338), Garnet Valley, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 5, 2009 Unique character, aroma of (surprise) blackberry and coriander, maybe some vanilla. Appearance is cloudy orange with a white head that thins out, and decent lacing. Flavor of blackberry with a creamy texture. Nice lingering taste of blackberry in the finish.

| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | May 4, 2009 12 oz bottle courtesy of the Binnys Singles Rack (Orland Park, IL). Pours a hazy amber pour, with bits of fiery gold and amber mixed in, a moderate bubbly white head that dies to a small layer, laces a bit. Aromas do indeed push blackberries, a little too sweet and artificial for my liking, with a touch of skunk, and some wheaty feels, and some grains of paradise (similar to Summer Ale, which I think is awful). A touch of witbier in there, aroma wise, coriander, no real orange zest though. Maybe slight spice. Initial is a little too sweet for me, but the orange zest and coriander come through a little stronger, with wheat mellow sweetness, slight bitterness on finish, and belgian yeasts making their presence felt. Overall, this is too sweet, with the blackberry feeling a tad artificial. I’d have personally liked a touch more tartness to this, pushing a nice contrast. Alas, that was not in the cards. Lacks substance and a personality, even for a tame style. thehurt01 (209), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | May 4, 2009 A 12 oz bottle. The beer poured a cloudy gold and small white head. Smell is berries. The taste is moer like a buttered popcorn. Good carbonation.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | May 4, 2009 Not a bad fruit beer, but a fruit beer it definitely is. The berry aroma and flavor seriously overpower any of the wit characteristics that may have once been in this brew.
