kidmartinek (734), austin, Texas, USA Jun 12, 2008 Burgandy beer, with practically no head. Lots of carbonation. Smells like fruit punch. Tastes like a wine cooler with balls. Flavor is morefruit punch than blueberry. Mouthfeel is like an average run of the mill moderately high carbonated american pale lager. The finish reminds me of wine, not beer. At 8%, none is detectable. Probablly the nextbig pantie dropper at colleges all across America. Commercial description is completely fraudulent and deviod of any reality.
ROGUE (127), Newark, Delaware, USA Oct 13, 2008 Poured a deep purple color with a deep pink head. Thick lacing on the glass. Looks like cough syrup and tastes like cough syrup. AB should stay away from micro beers, this is a terrible attepmt at a fruit based beer. Juelze (703), Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA Oct 12, 2008 Pours a rich purple color with light pink head. Aroma is abundant with blueberries and not much else. Lacks complexity and balance is it’s overtly sweet. Meh. Beerded_one (1617), Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 11, 2008 Bottle. Pours purple with a light pink head. Aroma of tart blueberries. Strong sweet flavor of blueberries throughout. light to medium body with low carbonation and a clean and smooth finish. KornDogg (31), Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 8, 2008 Purple body with pinkish head... strong berry flavor, not a typical fruit beer, but refreshing... Decent fruit beer for AB, who would have thought?? I love this beer in the summer time... goes down smooth, quick and easy... had to buy a case... eurobier (18), snellville, Georgia, USA Oct 5, 2008 Best stuff I’ve had from AB actually leaves a lacing on the glass does remind me of carbonated grape Kool Aide not much on traditional beer taste and you can’t taste the alcohol but you can sure feel it.
