2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20UPDATED: MAY 13, 2009 Clear golden with faint head and little carbonation bubbles. Syrupy fruit aroma. Outside of the fruitiness, this has a flavor profile of a combination of an american lager and a wine cooler. Slightly off on the finish.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Generally I like any Long Trail but this was at the lower end. Poured a light golden with white head. Had a blackberry sent with faint hop smell, overall not much taste. If someone offered it, I’d have one but don’t think I’d buy one.
2.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Miller lite hidden in a micro? Bland, bland, & then an abrupt tasteless finish. Pours boring, smells ok w/ a hint of the blackberry, but extremely boring taste & I paid $7 for it at a baseball game! Ehh, skip it!
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Draft. Pours clear light gold. Tastes dry, slightly bitter, not much flavor. Smells funky. Light body and medium carbonation.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
Can. Pours urine colored, albeit with a pretty 2 finger white head. Nose is almost entirely blackberry with just a touch of wheat. Taste is similar. End result is almost like grape jelly. Palate is a little too smooth. Could be a radically different beer if it was a bit dryer. I'm very conflicted on this one. On a technical level it's too sweet and lacks depth. On a practical level it tastes pretty good and I could see it being nice on a hot summer day.

Tap. Pours clear gold with thin, fizzy white head. Aroma is blackberries, wheat, grassy notes, dough, and some cookie malt. Flavor is balanced fruit esters and bready malts with light hops; crisp, dry finish. Light body and medium carbonation.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Draft. Not a fruity wheat fan but impressed with this beer. Blackberry at the first, finishes with a nice wheat flavor. Very light. Crisp.

Tap. Blackberry aroma w some grassy undertones. Light beer that tastes like it smells. Not v much like a wheat. Not too sweet. Ok but not something to drink too much of

2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Bottle. Pours clear, light yellow, thin white head. Aroma is dominated by the berries. Medium sweet taste. Thin body, high carbonation, a bit of a funky tart finish. Would not recommend.
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
12oz bottle. Pours a pale, light straw color with thin fizzy head. Aromas of wheat and berries. Taste has just a touch of wheat, with artificial black berry flavor.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Pours completely transparent gold with a very fleeting white head. Minimal lacing. The aroma is faint wheat with a subtle hint of blackberry. The taste leaves a lot to be desired. It is certainly not unpleasant, but there is almost nothing noteworthy going on. The blackberry taste certainly tastes like an extract, not real fruit, and there are some slight chemical flavors present. It tastes as though a bottle of blackberry extra got added to a keg of a "lite beer." I won’t be trying this again.
