Can at home. Pours beautiful burgundy with pinkish off-white head. Nose is a nice combo of blueberries and a cocoa nibs, with a touch of tartness. Taste is less sophisticated but still pretty decent, showing moderately tart notes of blueberriey and faint cocoa. Closes with light sourness and blueberries. Medium to full, creamy body, soft carbonation. I love the harmony of the fruit and cocoa in the aroma and I really would’ve liked some more of the latter in the taste. Still, pretty fun.

Can from the LCBO. Pours a dark purple, with a pink head. Aroma is a weird blend of blueberry, and cocoa powder. Think of blueberry chocolate cake. Mouth feel is good, carb is spot on. finish is subtly sweet, tartness is very minimal, cocoa adds a hint of bitterness. An odd combo, but it works.

(Can) Reddish purple colour with creamy, tan head. Fruity nose with blueberries, chocolate, lemon and sponge cake. Fruity, tart taste with notes of blueberries, chocolate, lemon, blood orange and white bread. No bitterness. Medium body, with a touch of sweetness. Fresh acidity. Sounds like a weird idea, but it actually works. Fresh, tasty and quite well balanced. Very nice.

Pours a hazy, dark reddish-purple, with minimal head. Aroma of sour blueberry and some chocolate. Flavor is tart blueberry with chocolate accents. It doesn't sound like the 2 would go together, but they really complement each other quite well. Good stuff.
