Bottle courtesy of bitterbill. Thanks!
Pours a clear orange to copper color with a thin white head. Smell is mostly malty with some spiced character in the way of the spruce tips, I’m guessing. Taste is malty and refreshingly minty almost and cool feeling in the mouth. Unique mouthfeel and flavor but not particularly fantastic either. Medium to thin bodied and somewhat easy drinking.

Jul 22, 2008 Bottle thanks to Zack. Almost clear and golden in colour with a medium sized head. Interesting but a bit weird. Notes of malt, marmelade, spruce, spices, hops and berries.

does not count  May 27, 2008 Initial flavour of sweet blueberries without a tart aftertaste. A bit of spruce evens out the flavour. The finish is hoppy in an inoffensive manner--good for those who like flavourful beer without a heavy hops taste.

May 25, 2008 Pours a clear golden with a white head. Very dry and sweet. Aromas of blueberries without theis sourness. Lots of floral spruce aromas. Medium bodied. Dry floral finish.

May 15, 2008 Sample in the Alaskan tap room. This brew pours a hazy, ruddy amber color with a medium thin light beige head that diminishes steadily. Stringy lacing. Aroma of pine, hops and fruit. Medium-bodied with a piney/spruce (prevents scurvy!) character, along with fresh fruit, hops and malt flavors. Touches of spice are present too. The finish is hoppy and malty with a fruit and spice aftertaste. Decent overall.
