cheapdark (1607), Monacatootha, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 3, 2008 Pale yellow with a nice blueberry aroma, or berries, at least. Color seems to have an ever so slight tinge of purple or blue but you’d never notice it unless you look closely. Initially comes across as a fairly bitter brew. Does has some fruit flavor but I bet the bitter beer lovers of this site love this stuff. Good tingly desired carbonation. Seems to have way more than 4% alky in the flavors. Yep, fruit flavors in there but at times difficult to ID. Lingering quite lasting bitter at end of each slug. More personality than yer typical flavored lager or light ale. rampmaster (168), Alden, New York, USA Aug 24, 2008 Presentation: It was poured from a brown 12oz. bottle into a pint glass.
Appearance: It forms a thin white head that quickly fades leaving just a few small bubbles on top. The body has a light golden color with very good clarity. (Apparently this is a filtered wheat beer.)
Smell: The aroma has a big blueberry nose up front with mild leafy hops and then some light wheat notes in the background.
Taste/Mouth feel: The blueberry, which is up front in the aroma, is more mellow or complementary in the flavor. The sweet/tart blueberry flavor is balanced well with spicy, almost peppery hop flavor and some tangy wheat flavor notes as well. Its body has a very drinkable light to medium body with a nice active carbonation and a slow finishing tart to bitter fading aftertaste.
Notes: I really enjoyed balance on this beer. I loved that the blueberry that was big and bold in the aroma but didn’t overpower the flavor of the beer or get lost altogether. Well done!!!
