| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Mar 9, 2007 Bottle. Aroma of berries, grain, and a little bit of hops. Bittersweet flavor, and i don’t think the sweetness of the berries mixes well with the bitterness of the hops. mybrainhurts (214), North Dakota, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Mar 8, 2007 Aroma is that of fresh wheat, mixed berries, and kiddie breakfast cereal. Taste like they crammed jam in a bottle. Really sweet and cloying. I can almost taste the berry seeds in this interesting offering. Nice effort but not my thing. bfeldmann (1042), Wilmington, Delaware, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Mar 7, 2007 Poured a cloudy golden color with small head. Aroma was of strong srong berries, wife could smell them across the room. Flavor was a light refreshing wheat and berry flavor. was a little to sweet for me but not bad. pineypower (1108), Pine Barrens, New Jersey, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 7, 2007 Pours out slightly cloudy straw color with a white head. Aroma is of I guess boysenberries, because I’ve honestly never tasted them before. Body is average for a wheat, taste is sweet and slightly tart berry with a dry finish.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 6, 2007 Decent look with a medium head. Wonderful smell of boysenberries is present but not overpowering, but the boysenberries flavor is a little artifical and overpowering in the taste. jetzler (622), oklahoma city, Oklahoma, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Mar 6, 2007 Bottle, really this is a fruit beer, I think it needs more fruit, other than inital smell and a touch of tartness, the boysenberry was quite lacking. My guess is that the original had a lot more boysenberry. Now I could be wrong, but a bit more would be good. Sorry if my opinion of fruit beers is based upon the New Glarus Red or Kuhnhenn Eisbock.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 4/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Mar 5, 2007 The aroma was fruity with a blueberry aroma (I suppose that is boysenberry). The fruit dominated the aroma coupled with some wheat presence. The yellow beer was lightly hazy and had a HUGE off-white head which rose tall and too days to fall back. The flavor was fruity, but not quite blueberry, more of a lightly tart blueberry and perhaps raspberry blend. The wheat was evident as was a very slight spice. The tartness in the flavor just did not work for me at all. The body was medium and with a wheat made for a creamy mouthfeel. The finish was dry with lasting tart berry. Not a favorite. 12 ounce bottle.
