Very blueberry’y. It’s difficult to have blueberries balance in a beer, and Firestone did it right here. I am confused though, there was no hint of oatmeal and not much stout.

MrBeerFanatic (500) - jamestown, New York, USA - JAN 26, 2012

Dark amber in color fizzy yet somewhat frothy head. Interesting aromas of potent blueberry syrup, roasted malt in the back and a lingering caramel. Flavors of light molasses, light burnt malt, alcohol (very noticeable), sugary syrup, blueberries(like artificial syrup. Unbalanced, sweet, bitter, but still interesting. To much on blueberries and alcohol little on stout.

Jesterdeal (410) - Marlton, New Jersey, USA - JAN 25, 2012

Aroma of dark ripe blueberries. Pours black with a light fluffy head. Taste is much less pleasant. Blueberry, bad chocolate cookies and a weird floral taste throughout. Neat beer but not good.

Why did I buy a sixer of this w/out reading a review? Cause I love Stouts and Blueberries and thought they would go good. Maybe they do but this brew is not drinkable at all. I’ll spare you the details. Just stay away.

jmcewen79 (1) - - JAN 18, 2012 does not count

This is by far the best oatmeal stout I have had. The blueberry adds a unique contrast that is stimulating to my palate. I seriously would put this beer on my waffles. I can’t understand why others are rating this beer so low. Don’t listen to them if you haven’t had it go out and buy it right away you won’t be dissappointed.

WTF is this? Almost no cap. What was there, vanished instantly. At first, there was a slight smell of blueberries, then that turned into some type of dusty pudding garnished with pepper. the colour looks alright though. Deep brown/amber. The taste was peppery malt. Didn’t get much fruit out of it at all. I will dream about never having this beer again.

artmcd8 (131) - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - JAN 13, 2012

Powerful blueberry aroma, dark near-black pour. Tastes slightly bitter but doesn’t have the usual stout taste. Interesting to try.

Scubatrip (549) - Alexandria, Virginia, USA - JAN 1, 2012

From the bottle, pours very dark with visible carbonation. Smells like hostess little blueberry muffins, tastes not as good. Crispy bite, like gasoline. Not a fan, though I wanted to be.
