Bottle. Pale golden with a white head. Pumpkin pie spice aroma - lots of nutmeg and clove. Light, fizzy body. Very light flavored beer with some artificial spice flavorings. Blah.

Best before 11-2005 bottle consumed 9/11/2005. Pours very bubbly. Big bubbles, decent-sized white head. Golden-raspberry cider/apple-juice colored. Smells like raspberry puree, with some hints of wheat sourness/dryness. Tastes like raspberry essence. Dry wheatiness, no yeast or hops. Barely any malt. Sharp, forced, overcarbonation. Some notes of honeyish malt on the end, with some light fruit acids. Decent raspberry flavor, with little to no beer aspects aside from some honey dough. Fizzy, no complexity. Gets more bland as it warms. Filtered, which is a sad thing, to see a filtered wheat beer. Won’t have to drink this again.

Clear golden color with minimal head, large bubbles, though - full blueberry aroma, but it seems a tiny bit artificial - thin-flavored but quenching - a tiny bit grainy with a large blueberry presence - nothing very "wheat ale" about it - just the slightest bit of bready malt gives a "blueberry muffin" sort of taste to it - Blue Point’s blue berry ale is nearly identical stylistically, but superior in every respect.

2005 bottle. Brassy-copper/gold appearance, clear with a moderate amount of white head, some retention. No lacing. Aroma of pale malts, sweet honey and light hay and grains. Some spicy notes in the nose. Flavor is more sweet malts, grassy and spicy soft hops. Some sweet dough, low to moderate carbonation, bit of wateriness, but otherwise nothing wrong here, just needs a bit more malt complexity and even a stronger hops presence. Drinkable enough for what it is, assuming it’s just a lighter session IPA. This isnt bottle conditioned (not an ale on lees).

Thanks to Matta for another interesting beer from his storehouse down in Tampa! Sea Dog pours out a large creamy off white head over a clear medium yellow body. Great looking beer. The aroma delivers what the label has me wanting, blueberries! Nice floral aroma with fresh blueberries. The palate is bit weak, light with some astringent dryness towards the finish.

Golden color with white head. Sour, skunked and sweet sugary artificial aroma blueberries. Very lame, light body with attacking crisp carbonation. Candy-like slightly sour berry flavor. Aftertaste has blueberries. Beer for kids. Fortunately not too sweet. This is way too overrated here.

Honey color with small vanishing white head. Sweet rasberry aroma. Crisp carbonated mouthfeel with rasberry flavor. Quite watery with short finish. If I want rasberries, I choose Boon Framboise :)

Bottled. Golden colour, no head. Artificial blueberry jam aroma. Sweet with clean mouthfeel. Thin with dysmal malt character. Useful only as an example how to not make fruit beer.
