bottle courtesy of Thedm - I now add to the ever popular saying, "don’t eat yellow snow" the also important advice of "don’t drink blue beer". So yes, it pours blue with very little head. It has a mild aroma with some malt and nasty grain adjuncts. The very mild taste is corn and other unpleasantness. It’s probably a good thing the taste wasn’t any stronger as that would only be worse. The body is thin and watery and leads to a mild, astringent finish. Meh. If you have any bottles of this bad beer, I recommend selling it on e-bay as a collector’s item rather than actually drinking it.

Horrible smelling blue beer - yes it’s blue, it’s a gimmick, and I could not finish much of it. And I had to have it, hopefully not a tribute to EL Salvador’s water supply. Ohio International gathering. Yes, the label is in an alien language

Thanks to thedm for this beer. This is one f***ed up novelty beer. It is an almost glowing blue color with a frothy pale blue head. Any fan of Star Trek will get the reference. The nose is thin and corny and the taste is of any crappy macro lager. It is a great goof at the end of the night. Really a bad beer, but a great experience. And its BLUE!

This clear bottled brew from the Star Trek Experience at the Hilton Inn in Las Vegas was very pretty with a nice gold blue foil metallic label and a gold foil cap. It poured a small sized head of foam with a frothy top fine to medium sized bubbles that was mostly diminishing and left behind a transparent typically carbonated metallic blue colored body. The poor horrid aroma was malty and very astringent. The mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish. The poor flavor contained notes of malt hops and was very astringent. A horrible one that I would not buy again. The aroma absolutely ruined it for me.

Bottle from thedm from his Vegas trip. I can’t believe I’m drinking a blue colored beer. This has to taste awful and sure enough it did IMO. Small white with some blue for the head that mostly diminished, minimal lacing, transparent, carbonated and what else? A blue hue of course! Malty, corn and skunky nose. Flavor was corn. Tingly palate and light body. It is a novelty and nothing else.

12 oz bottle. Thanks Joe. Clear blue in color with a small white head. Corn aroma. Corny flavor. All corn. Cardboard and lots of it. Not much to say. Corn and cardboard.

Joeec5 brought this to the NYRBG, and I just had to rate it for the novelty of it - are you one of those weirdos that, from time to time, wonder what the weird blue fluid they float the combs in at the barber shop tastes like? Well, you can stop wondering.

12 oz. bottle thanks? to Joeec5 at the NYRBG. Clear blue color with a small white head. Very little aroma, mostly corn or some kind of adjuncts. Sweet corn flavor with some wet cardboard. Awful beer but a neat gimmick.
