1 pint can. Pours an orange mahogany with light head. Aromas of blueberry muffins for sure, with vanilla and creamy malts. Flavors of bitter, earth blueberries and other soft tart berries, plus wheaty malts. Nothing spectacular on the flavors, it's pretty typical for blueberries, but the nose is right on the money and unique

Pours hazy deep orange tinged ruby into a tulip. Tan head with excellent retention recedes leaving scant sheets. Blueberry and strawberry aromas. Medium bodied with tart blueberry and sweet strawberry upfront turning to mild dough and muffin in the medium length finish.

Sample at the Brisket and Beer tasting on 11/02/2019. Cloudy orange-gold color with a medium ivory white head that recedes gradually to a film. Stringy lacing. Aroma of blueberry, yeast and malt. Light-bodied with flavors of sweet-tart blueberry, mildly funky yeast and doughy malt. The finish is tart and funky with a blueberry aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

Tap @ Great Notion. Pours light hazy golden with a small white head. Aromas of blueberries, muffins, light lactose. Taste has nothing but blueberries up front, some sweeter notes in the back along a lactic tartness, lemony. Fucked up beer but pretty damn nice hah

Poured from the tap. Hazy orange with near white head. Blueberry hubba bubba gum in liquid form. Sweetness isn’t overpowering, but almost no tartness. A bit too gimmicky.

On tap at Milk & Hops UES. Pours red purple. Blueberry muffins, sweet doughy blueberry muffins, almond, bit of tartness, lots of blueberry. Medium body. Smells exactly like a blueberry muffin, tastes like that but sour. Fascinating, but not super nice.

Slightly hazy purple brown color. Massive nose of sweet blueberry muffins. Reminds me of my grandma’s kitchen growing up. Nice tart, sweet mouth with tons of blueberry muffins. Wow. This is good. Excellent balance and nice depth and really tastes like blueberry muffins
