Commercial Description:
Not suited for timid or reserved beer drinkers, Wild Blue’s defining taste characteristic is its kick of natural blueberry flavor. The Blue Dawg Brewing team carefully selected a blend of hops and barley malt to ensure they complemented and balanced Wild Blue’s dominant blueberry notes, resulting in a robust and aromatic beer with a refreshing, palate-cleansing finish. Wild Blue is brewed with a blend of German hops from the Hallertau region in Bavaria and classic Aroma hops from the Willamette Valley in the Pacific Northwest. A combination of two- and six-row barley malt also was chosen specifically for this recipe. Beer lovers will appreciate this specialty fruit-infused lager’s striking burgundy color, ripe blueberry aroma and its ability to stand up to the strongest of foods.

Shared at Yeha! Aroma was fruity with alot of blueberry. Appearance was dark read with red highlights. Taste was sort of like altar wine-weak, watery.

This is an amasing fruit beer for the price. I got it for 7:50 a 6 pack and it has a womping 8% abv. Its as good as an italian blueberry beer ive had that was 20 bucks for a .75 liter

I poured this beer into a glass and alas its deep purple - I was stunned. The white head faded relatively fast but the lace remains on the glass as you drink. Its hazy so carbonation bubbles cant be seen if they are there. A candy like blueberry aroma so sweet and over the top it reminds me of Bubblelicous or grape nerds. A ton of blueberry Kool Aid must be added to the wort, this is practically soda pop! A slight malt is part of the taste but no hops can compete. This is a pure novelty beer and not one I would choose often, its more for the wine cooler or Zima or Cider crowd. All thats missing is yellow #5.

(12oz bottle, courtesy of Lumpy) Pours a ruby purple body with a small light pink head. Aroma or blueberries and grape juice. Flavor of blueberry kool-aid, alcohol, and light grassy hops.

Bottle. Poured reddish purple with a fizzy pink head that settles quickly. Aromas of blueberry, corn, and wheat. The flavor is full of berry that reminded more of a zinfandel wine. Medium body that is sweet yet tart, dry, and a berry and wheat aftertaste.

Bottle. Dark blue/purple with a small head. Surprisingly smooth flavor with a good kick of alcohol. Bubbly and odd with the amounts of blueberry.
