Sea Dog Blue Paw Wild Blueberry Wheat Ale

Brewed by Sea Dog Brewing (Shipyard Brewing Co.)
Style: Fruit Beer
Topsham, Maine USA

not really horrible! the aroma kicks butt. someone said i wish i could taste what i smell. the body of this beer is the downer, also little to no wheat beer characteristics.

generally i like blueberry flavored beer and this one was no exception i was pleased.

Clear dark gold with zero head and no bubbles. Very strong blueberry jam aroma. Strong blueberry flavor with grainy malt playing a distant fiddle. Just about no bitterness. Lacking in body and carbonation and character other than blueberry.

12 oz bottle from Trader Joe’s in La Mesa. Bottle says Kennebunktport Brewing Co. Pours a translucent gold color with a small white head that soon vanishes. The aroma has a good blueberry character. The flavor showcases weak washed-out blueberries and a bit of sweet and sour metal. The mouthfeel was thin, watery and under-carbonated. Even Bud has a better palate than this. The finish was short and metallic. Overall: Nearly a drainpour; because people brew fruit beers like these, the good folks at Cantillion have ample job security.

Bottle says "Kennebunkport Brewing Company" however a quick search of the brewers site shows that it is brewed by Federal Jack’s for trader joe’s. A- Dark yellow in color, almost apple cideresque. Small 1.5 finger head that fades quickly with no lacing. Looks very carbonated. S- Smells deeply of blueberries. Underneath is a hefeweizen wheat smell. T- Tastes of wheat and grain. Semi sweet malts with a hint of blueberry, but not nearly as much as I expected from the nose. M- Mouthfeel is very carbonated with about medium viscosity. D- This beer goes down really easy but I think I would get tired of the blueberry sweetness pretty fast, none the less its worth a try if your looking for a fruit beer.

garbage----- drank out of bottle tasted like blueberries hey not bad.then poured it into a glass expecting to see a blueish beer yellow as can be imatation flavors a no no couldnt drink the rest drain pour I guess when you start with a #1 like belguim red from new glarus your just going to be disappointed

The aroma is great. the first taste you get not much but a light beer taste. On the palate the blueberry comes back as a kicker. I liked it but would consider it mid-pack as far as Blueberry beers go, if that. Went well with a light fish.

This is a fairly weak effort in my opinion. The blueberry smell is there but the taste is justt too much blueberry. The beer itself, not counting the blueberry, is not that good. So the end result isnt that good. Watery mouthfeel. Good carbonation. Just fair at best.
