500ml bottle.
Pours a deep gold color, loads of carbonation. Aroma smack of artifical blueberry. Flavour is big time artificiala, dn slightly salty? I don’t know, every time i have a blueberry beer, i get this salty artificial taste. weird.

Bouteille 500ml. Nez fruité (bleuets sucrés plutôt artificiels), léger de levures aux notes épicées (poivre très doux) et de malt pâle avec des notes de houblon floral. Moyenne-mince en bouche avec un pétillement plutôt moyen-élevé ainsi qu’une texture très légèrement aqueuse et aux petites notes sirupeuses. Goût de malt pâle légèrement croustillant avec un léger goût fruité sucré aux petites notes acides (bleuets, un peu artificiel) lors de l’entrée en bouche suivi d’un goût malté doux (notes sucrées) et légèrement herbeux ainsi qu’un goût rappelant des traces de beurre puis une finale comportant de très faibles notes de houblon floral aux notes herbeuses et aséchantes. Post-goût moyen et très légèrement sec, légèrement sucré fruits (bleuets aux notes acides) avec des notes herbeuses.

Originally rated July 2006. One of the LCBO one-timers, this blueberry beer pours a golden-yellow colour with a very slight hue of green-blue. Its nice bubbly white head leaves a unified lacing as it fades at an average pace. Carbonation all over, but not too excited. Decent berry juice scent mixed with some mild pepper. Does not shout out blueberries (if you haven’t seen the bottle). Ingredients says water, malt, hops, yeast and flavour. Yes, flavour... as in not the real fruit. Sad. The taste is also fruity, but so light that it is kind of bland. No aftertaste and dry. Bought some for the cellar, but that is all I will be buying. A boring pils with some fake blueberry flavours.

A golden ale with a thin white head. Strong blueberry aroma as bottle is opened, with a malty backbone and light metallic notes. In mouth, a light sweet malt with light blueberry juice, lighter bodied blueberry jucie. Light bodied. Tasted late Dec. 2006.

This fruit beer has a unbelievable blueberry scent to it. To the nose there is not much more than jam to the nose. It pours a light clear yellow with a bright white head. First sip is a little sweet but full of blueberry flavour. The beer itself is a little weak and a bit watery but it isn’t the worst I have ever had. Good for 1 or 2 on a hot afternoon.

Bottle: Poured a bright yellow color ale with a huge bubbly white head with minimal retention. Aroma of blueberry syrup is quite intense. Taste is dominated by the cheap blueberry extract with a weak malt base and little or no hops. I guess this is just another weak fruit beer to add to the collection.
