Sea Dog Blue Paw Wild Blueberry Wheat Ale

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

Amazing beer. The blueberry is not overpowering but very tasty. For its alchoal content its very light. One of the better maine beers, like blueberry muffins.

Amazingly the aroma of artifical blueberry dominates the entire room once thei puppy is opened. Smells like breakfast cereal complete with freeze-dried blueberries. Clear amber body thin vanishing head. The flavor is also a lot like breakfast cereal. Not as horrid as I thought it would be but still something that I wouls drink again.

I’m going a bit against the grain here, but I liked this beer. From a distance it exudes blueberry aromas. I think the subtle wheat flavor and blueberry notes harmonize well together. This is a nice, relaxing beer to quaff.

Pours yellow\gold with a minimal white fizzy head. Aroma of blueberries and beer making a funky aroma of something i would usually never drink. The flavor however is mostly blueberries, sweet, and thin reminded me of drinking blueberry Kool-aid, which wasn’t a bad thing however this beer is nothing great, its probably something my old lady would like.

Clear light amber colored body with a thin, almost invisible head. Somewhat husky nose of starchy blueberries and sour candies. Weak palate, mildly sweet sugary flavor, lacks any resemblence of a wheat beer really... quite one-dimensional. It doesn’t annoy or taste unpleasent, just doesn’t excite at all.

Bottle... Clear, yellow beer with a small, fizzy, white head. Great retention. Fruity, tangy nose with notes of lemon, apple and blueberries. Fruity, lightly sweet, medium tart flavor with notes of lemon and blueberry tannin .Well balanced. Light-bodied and a touch oily with lively carbonation. Finishes tart, fruity and then dry. Tastes like a Berliner Weisse with just a drop or two of blueberry syrup. Nice and refreshing.

Bottle from Trader Joe’s. Poured a golden yellow color with a moderate white head that diminished quickly. Heavy blueberry pie aroma. Medium body with thin texture and soft carbonation. Moderate sweet blueberry pie flavor with a smooth moderate finish. Interesting but to sweet.

The aroma was overwhelmingly blueberry. The color was an odd pale yellow with a thin white head. The blueberry is overwhelming present in the flavor, and the base beer is a little bit watery and bitter. I was disappointed.
