Tap at Gar Eden. Red amber colour, small head. Aroma is orchard fruity, blueberry. Taste is nice, subtle blueberry with wheaty background, fruitiness comes and goes with each sip. Bitter finish. Pretty nice but a bit underwhelming.

Draught at the Keyaki Hiroba Autumn Festival 2012. Light purple color. Faint blueberry nose, light grassy hop. Ok but faint. Dry blueberry flavor, light acid, big bitterness, light funk Dusty, hoppy, not a whole lot of fruit flavor. Nice.

This was very unique. Dark purple color with a white head. The beer looked more like blueberry porridge than beer. The mouth was fairly thick and noticeably full of blueberries, but it was not sweet, cloying or disgusting in any way. In fact, it was clean, some what dry and refreshing. At the end of the pint glass was blueberry residue stuck to the side of the glass. Wow, this was something different and highly enjoyable. They must use all natural ingredients for this and the beer is well made. These guys are funky and awesome. I love it.
