12 ounce bottle into pint glass, bottled 11/8/2011. Pours slightly cloudy golden straw color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense white head with nice retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Spotty soapy lacing clings down the glass. Aromas of blueberry, blueberry skin, light bread, floral, and light herbal. Nice and pleasant aromas with good strength of authentic blueberry notes as expected. Taste of blueberry, blueberry skin, cracker, bready grain, floral, and herbal. Lingering notes of blueberry, blueberry skin, bread, cracker, floral, and herbal on the finish for a short bit. Good flavor balance with a nice amount of blueberry flavor; and zero cloying flavors present after the finish. Medium carbonation and light-medium bodied; with a very smooth and lightly syrupy mouthfeel that is good. Alcohol is well hidden with almost zero warming noticed after the finish as expected of 4.6%. Overall this is a nice blueberry fruit ale. Nice amount of blueberry flavor with good balance; and very smooth to drink. A nicely enjoyable fruit beer offering.

Bottle from Wine Source, Baltimore. Golden with a moderate white head. Pronounced, sweet blueberry fruit aroma. Fruity, shortcake flavours with more sweet berries in the finish. One dimensional, but drinkable.

Enjoyed at Bill's bar in NYC roc center. SRM of 8. Straw gold appearance. Slight white head fades fast. Smells like a bowl of raw blueberries. Very sweet ad minor earthiness. Taste starts with a cheap lager maltyness followed by blueberry juice. Not too complex. Cheap malt finish. 80% carbonation in the mouth swish. Ultra light body.

A refreshing summer beer, the blueberry is much more of a thirst quencher then I would have believed. Color is a normal pale yellow of an ale, the aroma is all blueberry with hints of citrus and floral. Taste is not overwhelming...in fact I would have enjoyed a little more of a blueberry flavor. Not bad...the ale part of the beer is not great, but the blueberry covers it up.

Hrm, poured with a burst of fresh blueberry aroma but that was about the only nice thing about the beer. Ordinary golden amber, not much head. Bready malts, blueberry flavors were candyish and tasted somewhat fake. Medium palate.

Bottle: Poured a deep clear bright golden color ale with a nice pure white foamy head with OK retention. Aroma of blueberry syrup and probably some fresh one as well is quite dominant and enjoyable. Taste is a nice mix between some flavourful blueberry and a light sweet grainy malt base. Body is about average with good carbonation. Refreshing and well brewed though a bit too sweet for my taste.
