| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 25, 2009 750 ml bottle courtesy of a trade with pnista. This is my last :( Upland Lambic for the wekeend. I took the cap off and saw some bubbling around the edges of the cork that I did not see with the other lambics I had this weekend. I hoped that it meant this beer was fully carbonated, which I realized after the cork was pulled, it was not. Pours a murky purplish brown with a few large, thin surface bubbles that quickly burst and no effervescence. Very pleasant aroma of tart berries along with some yeast. Noticeable aroma of blueberry. The flavor is frankly less distinct with some tart mixed berry flavors and a bit of oak. Somewhat lackluster on the palate. I really enjoy anything blueberry, and I purposely saved this bottle for last, but I was unfortunately left a bit disappointed with this bottle. BgThang (118), Texas, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | May 24, 2009 When the cap was popped the cork started hissing. Glad the capped and corked. The beer was just about flat anyhow. The beer tasted alot like wine, some alcohol notes and blueberries. Yes blueberries as the name implies. Glad I got to try this. Just received a bottle on trade. will try to get it waxed to maybe help the carb prob.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | May 16, 2009 Bottle from iowaherkeye. Thank you. Getting the cork out of the bottle was a real pain in the rear. Poured a ruddy purple-brown color with a white head. Smelled of berries, oak, and red wine vinegar. Light to medium bodied with minimal acidity and low-ish carbonation. I tasted distinct fresh blueberry, a hint of red wine vinegar, and oak. Pretty good, but was hoping for a bit more acidity. mar (1945), Dallas, Texas, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 2, 2009 No Blaebier, but good anyway. Smooth palate with dry fruit syrup. Red color. Blueberry is perceivable but light. Moderately sour, and more of the house yeast that I have come to recognize. BMan1113VR (2943), Los Angeles (and Dallas), Texas, USA

Aroma is light blueberry, oak and slightly sour. Taste is very fresh blueberries, slight tartness from the berries, but overall, not super tart. Very light carbonation and a water like mouthfeel.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Apr 30, 2009 Bottle. Body-looks like watered down blood, very still. Nose-slight diarrhea, NH3, diapers, slight berry. The nose is a mix of really good (berry) with really odd (diapers, NH3). Taste-not sweet, sour, slight Kool-Aid, thin, butter, watery. Basically a watered down very lightly funked berry juice.
