Aroma is soft fruits, not too noticeable nor overbearing. Has good soft pinkish brown clear body. Flavour is quiet blueberry mixed with malty ale and not too harsh. Crisp on the mouth. This is kind of nice and not cloying but I think the blueberry could be more prominent, though the subtlety also has its own charm in a world of overbearing beers.

Has a slight purplish accent. Hazy. Thin purplish head. Aroma has a touch of berry but just a touch. Same on the palate. I have no idea what the vision for the base is, but it seems sweet-tart, touch of berry, not really a well-structures beer.

Draft - Jammy berry. Cloudy red and brown with a decent white head. Jammy and maybe a blueberry note. Not particularly sour.

On tap at Darby's Gastown, pours a cloudy dark amber with a small off-white head. Aroma brings out light lactose and a touch of tart blueberries. Flavour is similar, with muffled earthy blueberries, a touch of lactose, and plenty of lacto. Nothing complex or interesting here. Meh.

Draught at Darby's Gastown, Vancouver
Cloudy light amber color. Anonymous Ale, with very light berry juice flavor, even less berry aroma, and some yeast traces.
