Draft/ A- Blackberry, chocolate. A- Dark color, dark liquid, beige head. T- Blackberries, cocoa, coffee, slightly sweet, slightly bitter. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, chocolate berry finish. O- A wonderful beer. Not offered very often. The blackberry tones are nice and it’s not your usual artificial tasting fruit beer. There are strong coffee and cocoa tones that balanced the fruit very well. A nice dark beer, and a surprising one since it’s a fruit wheat beer.

O- I had high hopes for this and was more than let down. The flavors just did not work together and it was unbalanced. Simply off-tasting. Looks nice though.
