Commercial Description:
Coeur d'Alene Brewing Company's Huckleberry Ale is a year-round refreshing ale which combines fragrant Pacific Northwest hops, selected light grains and the essence of our region's most treasured wild berry. We do not use any wheat malt in this brew to give it a cleaner, drier palate without heavy body and to leave the fresh, naturally sweet taste of huckleberries pure and accessible. Huckleberry Ale is a superior, hand-crafted beer with a clean, fresh taste.

Great flavor. The huckleberry is not overpowering but manages to fully assert flavor without tasting like candy. Not much to look at. Perfect summer beer.

On tap at the brewery. Pours a murky yellow with a white head. Aromas of berries overpower the senses. The flavor is also of huckleberrys, and is too sweet. If you like fruit beers and huckleberrys, this is your beer.

Pours a hazy bright yellow. Aroma initially is all huckleberry perfume, but as it stands a pepperiness comes forward that is surprising and nice. The flavour again is perfumey berries and some thin papery malt, with a thin mouthfeel and very short dry finish. The aroma holds more character than the beer.

12oz Bottle. Noses in a blueberry-blackberry jam aroma. A little artificial and candy. Light stemminess. Not bad actually. Fresh, glowing, not warm, real. Pours a clear pale yellow with a white rim. Flavor is terrible. Evaporative water with a splash of salt and seltzer. Pizza edge. Musty. Off berry flavors. Ick. A bit of strawberry pop rocks. Thanks Matt!

great ale for a summer day. Not an overpowering fruity taste, but the huckleberry lends itself well to the light ale.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of Skyview. Pours a hazy golden with a creamy, off-white head leaving laces. Lightly perfumy but very fresh berry notes. Medium-bodied with lovely, spicy berry accents. Short and dry finish. A very fresh and quaffable fruit beer. 040408
