Commercial Description:
A slightly tart, refreshing pale ale made with raspberries, blueberries and other natural fruits. Just as the cinnamon black bear on our label craves the flavor of mountain tundra berries, you'll find our Tundrabeary Ale to be irresistibly delicious.

Pours hazy magenta with 1-finger off-pink head. Nose is raspberry, cherry, earthy malt, peat. Tastes sweet, of raspberry syrup, plus some earthy, malt, and hop notes throughout. Not a prize winner, but a refreshing summer beer that I wouldn’t hesitate to drink again.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a bright berry red color with a medium sized khaki head. The aroma was musty and off with a light berry undertone. The flavor was tart and tangy blueberry and other vague berries that turns a bit dry towards the long, tart finish. Nice but with notable flaws.

Weirdly orange brown with a pink rose hue. lots of rolling carbonation within but it does not have that bubble on the palate. Very unique aroma which is sweet yet almost repulsive and slightly volatile. On the tongue some kinda a berry is detected in there but it has a different flavor than anything I tasted as a fruit beer. Yes, there is a hint of sourness or lambic nay I say, but is is not really palatable sourness. Goes down but could not drink two of these in a row.

Pours an amber color with a pink head. Aroma is terrible, berries and caramel was about all I could get from it. Blueberries are pretty strong on the flavor with other berries and caramel malts. This stuff is just not that good.
