Pale, golden, sparkling. Smells sweet & fruity - like a blueberry muffin (ugh). Flavour, thankfully, is more balanced with the blueberry integrating well with the pale malts at the beginning, becoming more prominent towards the end. The beer sweetens as it goes, but never gets back to the level of the aroma.

(12oz bottle) Medium off-white head atop a crystal clear amber body with pink tones. Aroma is medium sweet, blueberry. Taste is medium sweet, blueberry, some cardboard, seltzer. Light body, some crispness.

A Sim rate (12oz bottle from a deli in Brooklyn; sipped in Williamsburg park with a view over Manhattan at sunset): Sweet blueberry with too much of a beery maltiness. It looks like fizzy beer, or even soda. Nothing appetizing about the appearance. No head and not a chance of lacing. Flavour is very blueberry; synthetically so in a fizzy soda kind of way. Slight malt. It was enjoyable, but I wouldn’t call it quality beer. Sinkable though.

Bottle from Capone’s. I love this aroma, freshly picked blueberries fresh with that mild spicy aroma, and some hops and citric notes. The color is purplish gold color with fizzy pinkish head. The palate is on the light side, very lively, with a huge blueberry flavor coupled with pale malt and hopcitrus. However, the taste is a bit of a letdown after experiencing the huge, fresh blueberry aroma. As a side bonus, I had huge blueberry hop burps for 2 hours after quaffing this one!

12oz bottle-pours a white head with blue tint and amber color. Aroma is blueberries. Taste is blueberries, medium malt, faint hops. Nice, smooth, creamy.
