With backbreaking work we managed to get copious amounts of blueberries crammed into our fermenters, tumbling about with a generously hopped coffee infused imperial stout. The making of it turned us all into hunchbacks but we think it was worth every crooked vertebra in our bodies.

Sample at SBWF 2015. Black with a tan head. Roasted malt, licorice, caramel and some berries. Kind of smoot and with a medium body. The finish was medium bitter. A tasty one.
