Soft blueberry hugh with a scent of sour blueberry. Very smooth, yet sour berliner. Drank a bottle which i was told is more sour than draft. Flavor is delicious

Tap @ borefts beer festival 2012. Weird dark reddish brown with a small white head. Smell is vinegar, grain and blueberries. Tastes pretty old, sour, citrusy and then some blueberries. Not bad though! Decent balance

500mL from Torst. Pours clear deep red. Weaker foam. Nose is jammy, rhubarb pie, funky, red cherry. Taste is clean, simple, lemon, lime, bright lactic and citric acid. Palate is very sharp lemon citric and lactic acidity, bright, quenching. Better than expecting. Going to semi homer this up since I named this beer, true facts. Ask the brewer Ryan Whittier previously at Fano. Consumed with Jeppe at Torst. Boo. Ya.

(Critique chaotique du extreme beer fest 2013): Plus canneberges que bleuets, pas grand chose en le fruité au début et la sécheresse de la fin de bouche, buvabilité certaine.

Had bottled and on tap at Torst. The draft version tends to be more sour, whereas the bottle has a touch more blueberry flavor AND sports arguably the best label ever to appear on a beer bottle. Base Berliner shines through nicely, plenty lactic and plenty of fresh blueberries. Tart, refreshing, and I honestly prefer the taste to 2011 Blabaer. I could (and would happily) drink this every day.

Pouring at the Saturday sessions of Extreme Beerfest. Pours a faintly hazed pink hued gold with a thin white head. Spicy musk and funk, soft dusty blueberries. Tart with some faint acid, light funk and blueberries. Lovely cheesy funk, chewy blueberries. Fruit leather into a long funky tart finish. Probably my favorite of the Saturday session stuff. Beautiful.

Draft at Torst. Pours a deep purple-brown body with no head, thin off white lacing. Aroma is blueberry, light tartness, malt and yeast. Mouthfeel is medium to thin with notes of light fruit - very muted overall, tart berries and malt. Nice

Sampled at EBF. Pours a hazy purple with some cloudy, white head. Nose of fruit, tart, some wet feet, mold muffin, berry. Flavor is tart, grainy, grass, a little bleu cheese, sweat socks. Medium, sweaty finish.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
8 oz draft at Tørst, poured in a White wine glass. The pour is a hazed copper brown with purple notes, and a one inch tan head that has some faint pink. The aroma is blueberry fruit, nicely tart, light wood, and a faintly vinegar sourness in the back. A bit of caramel malt comes out as the beer warms. The taste is the tart blueberry, turns quick to lightly sour citric, then moves one to the wood. Nice bright flavors all around, decent integration. The palate is medium bodied, soft low carbonation, and a tart dry finish. Nice one.
