Sample at Yabo's Tacos Evans Farm. Clear golden color with a medium thin white head that evaporates quickly to an outer ring. Spotty lace. Aroma of blueberry, lemon and malt. Light-bodied with flavors of sweet-tart blueberry, lemon and doughy malt. The finish is mildly tart berry and citrus. Slightly above average overall.
Ah yes the best berry: blue. COYS!

Can from Home Bargains, Rochdale. Golden with minimal haze and next to no head. Blueberry is best as a lingering aftertaste, initially it's mixed in a rather generic lager taste. Nevertheless the fruit offers up little of prominence to a rather heavy strength shandy type brew.

355ml can from Home Bargains, Telford: BB 9th May 2024. Drank at home on 31st August 2023. Clean golden body, white topping. Lemons rule the nose and flavour with the blueberries coming through nicely, if you like that sort of thing in a shandy (no, me neither).

Can from Home Bargains, Byfleet. Aroma had musty blueberry and a light if tart citrus edge. Malty underbelly. Golden. An opaqueness. Thin foamy translucent white head. Hmm... a sourness. Light blueberry tang. Yeasty. Malty. Makes me think of icecream pales, which I also was not overly keen on. Light. Thin. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Doesn't work for me. Ditch the blueberries when it comes to shandies please.

[12oz can from Home Bargains, Bracknell.] A slightly hazy straw coloured pour with a thin white head; sweet aroma - grain, lemon and blueberry; tart fruity taste, with a good balance between the blueberries and lemon; then a finish than nicely blends bitterness and tartness. Clean and refreshing, and rather potent for a shandy.

Aromas are mild lemon, minerals and a bit of malt. Flavors are somewhat similar to nose, with blueberries showing up and slightly dominating lemon, mildly sweet tart. Body is a touch thin. Drinkable.

Pours hazy pale yellow. Blueberry leads the aroma with some lemon. The flavor is sweet with blueberries dominating and lemons bringing a little tartness. Light. Okay.
