This American Sour Ale is brewed like a traditional ale but Tarted Up! The tart is carefully wonkified to lift fermented golden blueberries into the realm of Sweet Tart. It is not purple. It is not chewy. It is a light, crisp, tart golden beer.

12 ounce can from Wegman's Charlottesville, 7/10/22. Hazy gold, thin fizzy white head, poor retention. Aroma of pretty much straight vinegar. Taste is mild fresh blueberry and a wine vinegar. Thin. Meh. EDIT: WAIT! I didn't get this at Wegman's. I got it from hershiser2! He got it at Wegman's.

Bright gold pour. Thin foam. Even lace. Malt nose. Malt and blueberry flavor with nut finish. Sour but nice balance. Easy carbonation

Husk, yeast, and lemon nose. Clear golden, thin head. Lemon, grape skin. Light body, easy carbonation. No obvious blueberry character, but a decent sour.

Can from either WW or Wegmans. It doesn't have the little pink thing on the top, so guessing WW. I duplicated my purchase. Need something sour after that sugar water shit excuse for a cider I just took 5 sips of and dumped. Pale gold, light haze. Nose is tart blueberry, lemon juice, green leaf. Tart blueberry, green leaf, lemon juice, bread crust. it cuts the sugar bomb I just had, but it's not great.
