Can. Taste was a mild berry flavor that was not too sweet. Aroma was also berry. Great summertime beer.

From a can, darker pale with a pinkish hue, nifty lighter colotred matching head. Has an odd off fruit nose. First taste is a little more bitter than expected and later some astringent attitude sets in before the swallow. Blah. Yea, seems a little phenolic in a way. I really don't think this rises to the civilized level of a witbier or belgian ale, its lacking manners. Perhaps its more like a poorly fruited wheat ale or even a typical fruit beer. To call this a wit is misinformed and misleading. Yea, lots of those domestic straight up ignorant wheat ale attributed here baby. In the middle, the fruit starts to come thru a little better, but its still rude. Finish is nothing different, just a little disappointed in this one. At least it has some decent co2 to keep my mind off the overall experience. I'll have to go see if I rated the strawberry version yet.

Pretty much exactly the same as my review for Strawberry Zombie, only replace the word “strawberry” with “blackberry” and there you go.

Refrigerated 12 oz can poured into a weizen glass. Aroma is nice wheat esters, medium body, medium carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is wheat esters and some blackberry.
