Amazing aroma, popped the cap and blueberry smell hit my face. Oddly purple color. Taste was a 3-way fight between blueberry, alcohol, and that classic malt liquor (ie Mike’s lemonade) taste...luckily enough the blueberry comes out on top on the palate. Pretty much as far from a lager taste as you can get though considering it’s labeled a lager.

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.

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.

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.

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...

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.
