Pour is a cloudy blonde with a ginormus white head. Aroma is yep blackberries. Flavor is blackberries with a huge tartness I was not expecting. Finish is clean and leaves some of the blackberry on the tongue. Thin all around but the blackberries were there and did not seem artificial.

Pours clear golden with a thin white head. Poor aroma, not good at all. Tastes like cereal with slight hints of blackberries. Palate includes subtle hints of blackberries and elderberries. Somewhat drinkable, fairly disappointing.

Bottle at buddies place. Light wheat color. Nose artificial berry and wheat. Tastes the same light citrus. Watery palate.

Pours an amber from a bottle, immediate nose of a currant-y berry. Flavor is more malt forward, somewhat sweet but not much wheatiness, some dark berry on the back end. A little diacetyl noted, lending a buttery note in the mouth along with an oily feel. Meh.

From old tasting notes. Bright, brassy gold color. Foamy white head. Soft berry malt nose. Flavor follows nose with assertive toasted malt character. Brief dry finish.

Can from Bert’s Slightly hazy deep yellow color with a decent sized bubbly white head. Berry and spicy cereal grains on the nose. Sweet berry dominates the flavor with a bit of bready spicy maltiness to almost balance it. Feels more like a wine cooler than a beer, but cleanly fermented and tasty.

12 fl oz, got from Alex, after a tasting round at Kingdom Brewing, Newport, VT. Thanks a lot! Pours clear pale golden in the glass, short loving head. Only blackberry on the nose. Starts with herb blackberry, maybe due to the hope. Later mid bitter dry aftertaste. Not really my favourite style.

Hellgelbe und klare Farbe im Glas, süßlich-fruchtiger Brombeergeruch. Der Antrunk ist etwas wässrig, aber süffig und sehr mild. Zum Hauptteil kommt eine deutliche Brombeernote hinzu, allerdings ist von dem Hefeweizen nicht allzuviel zu schmecken. Der Hauptteil ist neben den Brombeeren mild-süßlich, ganz leicht herb, es fehlen aber die typischen Kristallweizenaromen. Der Nachgeschmack ist auch ziemlich wässrig, außer leichter Brombeersüße und einem sehr mild-herben Bierton ist da nicht viel. Auf der Zunge bleibt fast gar nichts zurück
→ Die Brombeernote ist ok, aber der Rest ist kein Bier sondern fast Wasser! → Eigentlich durchgefallen, nur die Brombeeren retten noch etwas!
--> 7+12+1+4
