| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Jul 20, 2009 Cloudy wheat beer with a small head that dissapears quickly. The aroma is strong with blackberries and over powers any normal beer aroma. It has a slight bitter taste that offsets the sweetness of the blackberries, but is also very flat. Not my favorite beer but it cames with the Sam Adams variety pack. I drink this first so I can use the rest to wash it down with. :)

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Nov 27, 2009 Cloudy yellow color (with light particles); Light to medium body; Aroma and flavor of blackberry of course, sweet malt, some citrus and spice; Not my favorite - but an ok fruit beer. beerbill (1951), Laurel, New York, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 25, 2009 12 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy antique gold with a large white head that lasted through the first third of the glass and left large blotches of trailing foam. There are lots of small and a few larger floaties swirling about the lower portion of my glass. Strong aroma of blackberries along with just a bit of malt sneaking through. The flavor is again dominated by the blackberries although the malt behind them is more noticeable than in the aroma. Not a bad fruit beer.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 24, 2009 Bottle ( 12oz ). Clear pale bright gold, large fizzy-fluffy white diminishing head (no lace). Aroma of sweet black currant, some floral bitterness, a bit of paper. Taste is simpler, less sweet than the aroma - a mild witbier yeast/spice backbone with up-front ripe blackberry tartness. Average body, extremely light carbonation, with a sweet sticky fruity linger - decent. MaliMisho (215), East Meadow, New York, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Nov 21, 2009 Blackberriieeessss. This is the kind of fruit juice I wish I brought to school with me when I was a kid. The blackberry taste was very noticeable, but not bad. Pwn3d (1068), Manhattan, New York, USA

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Nov 18, 2009 Nothing spectacular as a witbeir; the blackberry addition does give the witbier a pleasant change of pace flavor; not much on aroma; an ’OK’ beer from Sam Adams beerfest5 (173), Simsbury, Connecticut, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 16, 2009 in bottle @ GIBF, what the hell is with sam adams? why cant they keep it simple and just do a quality witbier or IPA or whatever and not add fruit or whatever to it to try and be different. as one of the largest "micro’s" out there, they have the money to create some really nice beer if they wanted to but seem to have lost the idea that most people like simple beer, if i want an IPA i want to taste citrus and pine with high hops and very little malt, if i have a witbier i want spices, orange, and crisp taste, not blackberry.
