2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On draft at the Wrigleyville brewpub.... Berry aroma, light clear yellow orange, flavor is more blueberries and fruits... Interesting, but not worth having more than one
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Draft at Goose wrigley. Smells like a pile of blueberries. For having this much aroma it isn’t overpowering taste and enjoyable. Feel like the rating should be better on this one
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
For a fruit beer, it is pretty good. A nice dark red color with some blueberry in the nose and yeasty and blueberry in the taste. Pretty damn good!!!
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Enjoyed on tap at Goose Island Wrigleyville while hanging out with friends before seeing the band Afghan Whigs. Appearance is a slightly cloudy brown (I think at least...was a dark room) with a slight blue tinge, no head. Aroma not too apparent, light yeast and sweetness. Taste definite blueberry, light tartness, but pretty well balanced. Surprisingly good, kind of regretted getting this when I ordered but I’m happy I did.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Hungover. Arrived early at Wrigley Field and headed straight over to Goose Island Wrigleyville. In my 35 years, this was probably the earliest (and one of the few ever) times I went for hair of the dog. Beer was sweet, mild strawberry and blueberry -- nothing to speak of, but the experience was good.
2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Faint raspberry color. Cloudy. Tart like raspberries. Taste is a little off. No head. Mouth is odd too. I wasn’t a big fan of this.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 13/20
Aroma is; strawberry kool-aid, light cereal. Appearance is light purple/red little. Very little head and carbonation. I did bring a growler home, because this is my gf’s favorite and i was out for a bachelor party. Taste is good, but no hops detected, slightly sweet, no artificial flavors detected, all naturals, pale malt. Palate is blah, mainly due to little carbonation. overall, great tasting brew, but next time I will have to drink the growler within a 24 hour period. Finish is not much of anything. Kind of blah. This beer is very sessionable.. I could drink it all day. I will have to re-rate this when I try it on tap next time...
2.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
On draught @ Goose Island Wrigleyville. Golden pour with a thin white head. Aromas of gran and slight fruit. Sweet malt flavor with a funky blueberry flavor in the background...not crazy about this one.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap: The aroma consists of blueberry and light cereal/grain. It’s a transparent amber with a small off-white film for a head. The flavor status with a good dose of blueberries. The finish has a touch of light cereal/grain flavors. Light-medium bodied with somewhat lively carbonation. Overall, it’s sweet but not overly sweet like some blueberry beers. Great...no, but refreshing.
