500 ml bottle. Unclear purple body with a fast disappearing off-white head. Aroma is fruity with not surprisingly – blueberry. Not really strong in aroma but pretty distinct and I don’t really find much more in the nose with the exception of a spicy touch. Flavor is medium sweet, fruity blueberry, slightly acidic, some more fruit in general and a hint of peppery yeast. Decent body and aftertaste with the same flavor as the rest. OK, but the blueberry flavor ends up a bit one-dimensional for me, at least when drinking the whole bottle.

Amber-ish with some blue notes in the color. A bit hard to describe really. What a head. It refused to disappear. Lovely! A bit acidic fruity and some yeast in the aroma. Medium (+) body and a pleasant carbonation. Fine balance between sweetness and acidity. Fruity (blueberry maybe) and some yeast in the flavor. Decent fresh stuff.
