A full bodied stout made with all malted barley and blueberry. Flavors of chocolate, roast malt and light blueberry make up the palate with lots of fruity blueberry aroma.

bottle thanks to Keir, pours black with a medium dark tan head. Aroma is black patent malt, faint blueberry, and some coffee. Chocolate malt and a light blueberry finish with light flavors of coffee. Not bad.

12 oz bottle-pours a disappearing brown head and black color. Aroma is rich dark malt-licorice, earthy. Taste is rich dark malt/oat-licorice/chocolate, earthy hops. I don’t get blueberry but stevo says he does. Thanks stevo for sharing.

Courtesy of TampaBrew. Pours dark brown with dark tan head. The aroma is roasty malts, sweet malts and a truck load of blueberries. The taste is up front sweet blueberry fruitiness moving into sweet malts and highly roasted maltiness. As the experience moves to the finish the blueberry fruit fades a bit to reveal an even roastier malt layer that borders being burnt. As usual, tasty stuff from this brewery.

Bottle at home ... Thanks to a trade which escapes me (but feel free to tell me it was you ) ... deep black with a thick fairly firm tan head ... soft roast malt almost coffee nose ... quite a lots of roast with a noticible blueberry presence in the linger ... Its just too bitter for me... but the blueberries are definitly there and there no mistaking its blueberries... good roast ... little coffee ... but just too bitter... as i swirl round mouth i get alternations of the bitterness and the blueberries... sometime they seem to run of to hide behind the bitterness other times they smack me in the face... All round a winner but could be better. Bottle at fins aug 2016....dark brown black... Thin tan lacing.. Soft sweet chocolate blueberry nose.... Dark roast.. Bitter chocolate roast.. Big malts... Soft milky blueberry finish 4.0
