3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20 Jokes (1453) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - JAN 20, 2007Opaque black with a thin, crema-colored head. Pouring yields the aroma of fresh blueberries, for sure. Second inspectoin yields more blueberries, caramel, nicely roasted malt, light coffee, molasses, cocoa and a hint of woody spice. The body is big and smooth; it’s been a while since I’ve had a stout and this feels good going down. The first sip shows loads of roasted malt character. Nice roasted/burnt bitterness to balance the sweet malt and the subtle blueberry fruit. The cocoa, malt, coffee and caramel are really nice and compliment the fruit well. I’ve been leary of this for some time, wondering what blueberry and stout tasted like togther, but this was really nice. The fruit is subtle, but it adds depth and a unique character to maek something special.

Polaren sätter direkt att det är blåbär i. Faktiskt lite imponerande utan att veta. Kaffe dominerar ju annars i denna pjäs. På tap på oconnor. Bra stämning

Bottle. Must have had a bad bottle my first go round because the second was much better. Dark pour with small khaki head. Blueberry, coffee and malt aroma. Strong coffee taste with only a hint of blueberry. Decent stout.

Serving: 12 oz. bottle via trade. It pours pretty much black with a small, tan head. The nose is almost all blueberries with a hint of roast on the back end. The flavor is a mix of sweet chocolate, blueberries, light earth, coffee, and roast. Medium to full bodied with a medium finish. While it’s well made, the flavor combination just didn’t hit on all cylinders for me.
