3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
On tap@Callahan"s: Pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma is light bluberry. Flavor follows aroma with light blueberry. Light body with moderate carbonation.
2.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
Draught. Arbitrary score 4/5 for Appearance, as nighttime conditions prevented correct assessment. Fruity nose, if anything reminding of pineapple; blueberry remaining a possibility. Very dull. Perfumed, utterly artificial flavour and very watery, if slightly wheaty background. Watery, empty, even the typical wheatslickness missing. Poor. And that’s putting it mildly.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Overall, pretty good. Blueberries all over taste and nose, but otherwise a very dry malty brew.
2.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Artificial blueberry aroma and flavor. Pale, pale yellow. Just fake to me.
3.5 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draft. A golden beer with a lazing white head. The aroma has strong notes of blueberries. The flavor is sweet with notes of blueberries and malt, leading to a dry finish. Great blueberry beer.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Draft at the brewpub. Clear dark gold pour, white head. Lots of blueberries, flavor is better then the aroma, which was a little musty. Pretty sweet... bread, lightly malty. Pretty decent for a blueberry wheat.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pretty standard blueberry beer. Pours hazy, golden yellow with a thin white head, specks of lace. Smells like blueberry soda. Tastes like blueberry soda. Lots of blueberries. Kind of fake though. Light, syrupy body, vibrant carbonation.
1.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Cloudy pale yellow with a tiny white short lasting head. Sweet and fruity aroma with berries, wheat, yeast and wheat. Sweet lollypop flavor with berries, wheat and yeasty notes. Like a soda really.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
A: A rather uninspiring pale golden color with no head and not much in the way of visible carbonation either.
S: A huge aroma of sweet blueberry pancakes. That’s really all there is to it, and I’m liking it.
T: Like the nose would indicate, we’ve got sweet, sugary, blueberries and a doughy pancake like flavor. Perhaps a bit "spritzy" on the finish.
M: Although the beer is really sweet, I was surprised that it isn’t syrupy. Quite light with a fairly low carbonation.
D: I’m not normally one for these sweet, sugary beers, but this just tasted so much like one of the breakfast foods I really like: blueberry pancakes. As "bad" as it is to say, one of the better beers I had that day.
