(Bottle) Very dark brown colour, almost black, with hints of ruby when seen through light. Frothy beige head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of chocolate, blueberries, blackberries, caramel, dark rye bread and roasted malt. Malty, fruity taste with chocolate, caramel, blueberry jam, a touch of coffee and a slightly sharp bitter-sweet finish. Almost full body, quite sweet. Quite an interesting beer with more blueberries in the nose than on the palate, but still with lots of taste. Quite nice.

Bomber. Pours a dark brownish burgundy color with a thin cap of light brown foam. Aroma is an onslaught of blueberry dessert sweetness with notes of dark chocolate and caramel malt. The taste starts out with bittersweet chocolate, espresso and roasted malt flavors before the blueberry returns in full force. Also a bit of toffee, alcohol and herbal hops in the mix. Mouthfeel is medium-bodied with moderate carbonation and a bittersweet, roasty finish. As expected, the coffee and chocolate notes blend really well with the blueberry flavors. Definitely one of the top berry beers around and a good brew to finish off a holiday meal.
4.2 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20 jmohno (831) - Iowa, USA - OCT 4, 2012
Passed this up for at least a year. Upon opening was a big hit of nice fresh blueberries.Dark brown color with a swirly thin head. I would swear it has a deep purple in this dark brown ale.This beer reaks of blueberry. With sweet malt and slight dry alcohol.
Carmelly Chocolate blueberry in a malty balanced porter/scotch style base,this works well and is complexly good.Very nice grape blueberry tones with carmel malt/chocolate malt,not sweet,There is also vanilla tones maybe from the carmel.Which sucker me in to taste.This is nice,wish I had tried it sooner,I will definatly be picking these up more in the future.I kinda feel like I just had blueberry pie,this is as good as smashed pumpkin maybe better than that. Quite surprised how good this is.This works!
