Blue Point Blueberry Ale

For a fruity Ale, this was a great beer. I got a sixer of this and can’t stop drinking it. Most blueberry ales don’t have a strong fruit flavor but this one shines out with a nice Maine blueberry taste that isn’t overpowering but is still balanced. I didn’t taste a lot of hop bitterness which is expected from a fruit brew. Color was a nice Orange hue similar to a regular Pale Ale. It didn’t pour with a lot of head but you could even smell blueberry in the nose. I will be buying this again.

This was a nice refreshing ale that was light in body and pleasantly fruity. It wasn’t very wheaty which was a nice change; usually all the fruity beers have this overbearing wheatness. Nice light brew.

I actually thought that this was going to be a rush of blueberries like Wild Blue, but I was pleasantly surprised. The blueberries are not overdone. This ends up being a refreshing blueberry beer.

Draught: This one pours a fairly clear, somewhat orangish color. There was a small white head on it that didn’t linger too long. The aroma is definitely blueberries, but not overpoweringly so. Even still, not too much else rose above the blueberries. The taste is good. Blueberry flavor, but not overly done at all. A nice lighter bodied beer behind it. Nice.

This fruit beer poured a golden orange colour with a short lived rocky white head. To the nose there is strong scents of blueberries, hopps and other ripe fruit. Maybe a little spice. First taste was sharp with carbonation. Flavours of hopps first then the blueberry. Not overpowering like some other blueberry beers I’ve had. Palate is slightly sweet with berry’s lingering.
