COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A light fruit ale, made with Maine wild blueberries. As opposed to many of the sweeter fruit beers on the market, our addition of fresh Maine wild blueberries in this light ale yields a subtle blueberry aroma, without the sweet aftertaste. A mixture of the following Mutton malts, pale, crystal, and Munich, are combined with wheat to give this ale its lighter body, and we only use minimal amounts of Target and Willamette hops.

Bottled. A hazy amber beer with a thin lazing beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of cinnamon and blueberries. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of blueberries, leading to a dry and slightly acidic finish. The body is thin. Thanks Papsoe for sharing.

Oakes (10184) - Gibsons, British Columbia, CANADA - DEC 17, 2002
UPDATED: JUN 27, 2008 re-rate, May 2008
Kind of a blue-tinted amber colour. The aroma has lots of blueberry. Well-balanced on the palate. Lots of blueberry but also a firm caramelly, earthy maltiness. THe blueberry comes up with a fresh, fruity sweetness at the end that I really like.

Original rate: Orangey-amber candied blueberry, caramel and earthy malt aroma cuminy, musty flavours. I’m sorry for using such an obscure reference, but this tastes exactly like the Karma Co-op food store smells - from the spiderwebs to the flax seed and all that organic stuff - it’s a dead ringer. Interesting stuff, restrained blueberry. 6 3 7 4 14 is equal to 3.4

(12 oz. bottle, courtesy of Lumpy) Pours a hazy blue-amber body with a small beige head. Aroma of blueberry pancakes and caramel. Flavor of malt and blueberries with a somewhat thin mouthfeel.

hopscotch (7522) - Vero Beach, Florida, USA - MAY 21, 2006
Draft... Clear amber ale with a small, fizzy, white head. The aroma is lightly fruity with subtle notes of blueberry and citrus (grapefruit). The flavor yields tangy blueberries balanced by light hop and/or tannin bitterness. Light to medium-bodied with lively carbonation. Finishes astringent and dry.

Tmoney99 (7294) - Cincinnati, Ohio, USA - MAY 9, 2005
Mothers Day tasting at Party Source. Bottle. This fruit beer is also a brew made like a beer. No question that it is blueberry. Hue, aroma and flavor was good balance of fruit. Sweet finish.
