Flascherl (Danke, Jonas!): Cloudy, purple (!) coloured, no head to speak of, , dry fruity (presumably blueberries) and x-mas-spicy(?) hoppy nose; moderate bitter-sweet flavour, medium bodied; bitter and (a bit) christmas-spicy and fruity finish. Why does the brewer do this...

Pinky color and a nice, but quick dissapering head. I am not sure, if I like this. Berry-fruity nose faint wooden. Taste starts fruity quickly followed by an astringent bone-dry taste. Harsh mix of hops and fruit.

Very dry with hints of blueberries. Very dry herbal, hard to drink. Strange.

Bottle. Murky purple color with white head. Aroma is blueberries a bit, okay, buttery, old cream. Taste is cream, some fruits, a bit harsh, tart. Mealy mouthfeel with medium carbonation. Not for me.

Bottle from Haussmann Getränke, drunk while watching Archer try to be a P.I. Purple Haze! Excuse me while I... Sightly sour berry nose. Super smooth and dry on the tongue, round, white wine notes with a hint of evaporated blueberry. Citrus hop flavors really mix well with the berries. High carbonation pops the esoteric flavors into high gear. Really unique and tasty.

Bottle picked up from Bierhandwerk webshop, Kranzberg, nr Freising and consumed at home Friday 8th May 2020 at home Attenkirchen on gloriously sunny day. Day 52 of lockdown for us (technically in Bayern it started 2 days later) we have sausages on the BBQ tonight we're listening to Craig Charles on 6Music once again sitting in for Steve Lamaq. Pours deep purple with a hint of dirty purple in the head. Soft mouthfeel, really fruity from the off, dry also, some tartness and bitterness, but yes quite dry, very much like the dryness you'd get from eating the blueberries. I like this.
