Can from Paul thanks for the opportunity.
Deep gold color with a decent sized bubbly white head. You would think a blueberry beer would be I don't know blue-er? Bready malt with artificial blueberry flavoring a hint of diacetyl and earthy hops.

16 oz. draft. Hazy pink color. Aroma is light lactic acid with blueberry hints. Flavor shows soft tart berries throughout with some mild sweet sugar in the finish. They managed to make the sweet tart candy work. After half a pint it was more than enough.

Cloudy pinkish-gold color with a medium fizzy bone white head that burns away quickly to a film. Short strings of lace. Aroma of berry and malt. Light-bodied with flavors of mildly tart blueberry, wheat and malt. The finish is fruity with a short berry aftertaste. Slightly above average overall.

Slightly hazy golden and pure purple/pink coloured hazy glow with a nice off-white head that fades fairly quickly like soda. Aroma of light blueberries, a touch of wheat, some subdued malts, a good grassy and herbal touch with a hint of alcohol near the end. Light-bodied; Sharp grassy and relatively herbal flavour with some 'dirty' blueberry flavours showing more of an earthy characteristic than anything sweet, but the fruitiness remains and stays strong throughout with some light tart element without much else. Aftertaste is deep and very earthy with the fruit noticeable along with some tartness and a faint glimmer of sweetness and a dash of alcohol and punch towards the end that ends a bit bitter. Overall, an interestng beer that shows more of an earthy or 'dirty' profile from the blueberries rather than sweet or sour, but complex throughout, with a relatively strong flavour that largely shows the right flavours. I sampled this twelve ounce can, purchased from Liqour Outlet in Boonton, New Jersey on 22-September-2018 for US$1,59 sampled at home in Washington on 12-January-2020 for my daughter's 5th birthday celebration.

Raspberry nose, butter. Clear copper, pinkish hue, thick head. Tart raspberry, maple syrup accents. Medium body, easy carbonation. Not distinctly blueberry and seems a bit off.

Maybe it's me, but this tasted like tart water. I have a cold, but really, I couldn't smell or taste anything. Although I guess I also didn't smell or taste anything bad, so it could have been worse.

$2.10 can, Wine Warehouse. Pours pink with a pink head. Aroma is tart citrus, blueberry. Flavor is tart blueberry, hint of lemon, salt in the middle, green leaves. Plain. Drinkable, but nothing to seek out.
