12 oz can. Nine months old. Yikes. Aroma is wheaty, SweeTarts, blueberry. Pours murky orange-brown with a thick cream-colored head with excellent retention and some lace. Taste is lightly sweet, with a light herbal hop bitterness in the finish; flavors of blueberry and wheat. No flaws that I can tell considering its age. Above average fruit beer.

Ordnance Bloops 4.6% paired with a Sadaharu Aoko macaron I figured the US Blueberry Wheat would go with the raspberry macaron. I was torn between pairing it with this or a Kriek/Framboos Lambic. Anyways, the beer was not really pinkish or red in color. It was a dull brown though the foam had some fruity highlights. The aroma on this is of a huge freshly baked fluffy blueberry pie or tart. Medium bodied the taste is honeyed malts, pie crust, tart then sweet blueberries that evoke a bright spring or late summer day. These macarons are the best I’ve had and pack a huge jammy flavor punch. This one is a bit old and so the shell has dried out but the interior still has that potent flavor. Together the malt is emphasized while the fruit character becomes tarter and more acidic. Kind of an interesting effect. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

On tap at GABF. Pours a cloudy brown with small white head. The aroma is fruity malt and bread. Thin body, berry, wheat, light finish, decent.

Can shared at Leighton's place. 31/08/2017. Many thanks to Colin for this one. A translucent dark orange coloured pour with a loose white head. Aroma is floral sweet apricot, orange, cleaning product, peach, flroal notes. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, nutty malts, toffee, pineapple, apricot jam, lavender, weird beer. Palate is semi sweet, moderate carboantion. Little artifical. . Weird stuff.

Can shared in Hackney / many thanks to Cloin. Pours clear, rich orange with a creamy, white head. Ha, fun aroma, pretty akin to blueberry pancakes. Light-medium sweet flavour with some fleshy blueberries, blueberry muffins, low bitterness. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Finishes with more blueberry pastry. Overall, pretty fun.

Can at Bodney Mansions, thanks to Frank for pushing this over the pond, 31/08/17. Golden pinky with a decent off white cap. Nose is balanced berry fruits, straw, grains, blueberry pulp. Taste comprises tangy berry, light dung, straw, sweet licks. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, sweet licks in the close. Solid fruit beer.
