Refreshing ale served with blueberries in the glass. Pours golden-orange with a fine white head. Aroma of fresh blueberries, blueberry bread (floury), crystallized sugars and pepper. Sweet flavors dominated by mild blueberries with a malty background. Sweet fruity aftertaste with hints of pepper. Light-medium body, creamy and refreshing. Our Blueberry Ale is better enjoyed as an aperitif or with dessert. Keeping an open mind, it fits nicely with food plates which are slightly sweet in flavours (like some Cantonese dishes), or with any meat when served with a fruit based sauce (preferably blueberry, such as our Blueberry Ale Sweet and Mild BBQ sauce offered at our Barnyard BBQ) or with fruits in the stuffing. Some nice pairings: Cheese cake (with or without fruits), crème Brulée, Wensleydale cheese with Blueberries.

A light golden ale with an extra thick white head. Strong blueberry aroma permeates as bottle is opened, some perfume notes in nose as beer warms up. In mouth, a rather perfumey ale with light blueberry notes, but overall, cloying. Not a fan of that style. Bottle from Moncton, from Probstk.

An orange beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of blueberries, while the flavor is sweet malty with strong notes of blueberries. The body is thin, which is a drawback, otherwise a nice one.

This ale poured a medium yellow colour with a great big white head. To the nose of course blueberry scents with dough and a bit of citrus. First sip was very nice with not an overpowering taste of blueberrys. Nice flavour with a little hopp to it. Palate was a little doughy with flavours of the hops lingering.

Served with a dollop of actual blueberries in it. This goes on top and then they fire another shot of beer into the glass, creating a purple swirl in the head. Most of the blueberries sink gradually to the base of the glass, where they make a nice snack to finish up the Pump House Blueberry Ale experience. The beer itself is golden amber. Smells like blueberries ( I have to admit, the presence of those fresh blueberries – it’s harvest season so I know they’re fresh – would do a good job hiding the use of extract). Tastes like bland, fizzy, yellow ale with blueberries. Points for presentation, no question – it’s even better than drawing shamrocks in your Guinness and miles ahead of that pretentious Interbrew nonsense. But it’s really not that good a beer.
