This stuff was OK. Nice little blueberry note in the aroma, and the blueberry flavor is not too strong. Poured with a thick, creamy head, yellowish color. Liked the taste, underlying beer Is nothing special. Would drink, would not seek out.

Pours a light golden color with a light head. Short hint of blueberry quickly overtaken by biscuitty malt and yeast. Flavor leaves very quickly.

Bottle. Not much blueberry here, just a mild hint. Otherwise it is an unremarkable beer.

hivemind (657) - New York, New York, USA - APR 8, 2012
Bottle from Wachusett variety pack bought by Ryan. Poured into lager glass and drank on Easter. Pours a light to medium gold with medium white head. Carbonation is apparent. From what I hear, if you get this on tap at bars in Boston, they’ll toss some blueberries in the glass and you can watch them float up and get pushed down in the glass by the carbonation. I guess that’s cool but you could probably do it with any beer. Aroma is faint blueberries and a little bit of wheat. Palate is pretty much the same - blueberry frozen yogurt. Almost more a general berry flavor than blueberry in particular. Thin-bodied and lame otherwise.

justabeergeek (192) - Albany, New York, USA - APR 6, 2012
Pours a hazy golden/straw with a nice white head. Smells very tart and of blueberries without question. Some malt. The blueberry taste is fresh, not chemically. There is also some yeast, malt, sugar, and a touch of vanilla. Not bad at all.

adnielsen (6177) - Fort Collins, Colorado, USA - MAR 5, 2012
Tap @ Ithaca Ale House. Clear, golden appearance with a pearl white head (and served with blueberries). Super fresh, rich, slightly tart blueberry, what malty aroma. Slightly tangy citrusy, wheat malty flavor with a fresh blueberry goodness. A touch thin.

FROTHINGSLOSH (3963) - GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania, USA - FEB 1, 2012
My wife brought this one back from a trip to Rochester. +++ Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy yellow-gold color with a small foamy white head that faded quickly and left a bit of lacing. The aroma was moderately sweet table sugar, blueberry, a touch of yeast and a tart and almost lactic undertone. The flavor was bread, cracker, table sugar and tart blueberries. The finish was medium length tangy blueberry and bread. Medium body. Solid.
