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.

This is a very purple beer. Strange color, but it fits the flavor. The aroma is a grape / blueberry, as is the flavor. Very fruity. Good hot weather beer.

Bottle. Pours a dark blue/purple which is very disarming. Aroma of berries and malt. Flavor is intense of sweet blueberry, malt, and a touch of alcohol. Finish remains sweet but slightly odd in taste and a bit syrupy. Overall, it is a a decent attempt at a fruit lager,-- a nice no-nonsense alcohol content – but this is really not my thing.

From a six pack that cost $7.85. Even bad beer is getting expensive these days. Blueberry color with small light purple head. Light but smooth mouthfeel. Sweet flavor of blueberry. Barely drinkable.

IT HAS A STRONG ALCOHOL CONTENT THAT IS MASKED WELL BY THE STRONG BLUEBERRY FLAVOR. IT IS MORE LIKE A WINE COOLER THAN A BEER.

Bottle poured a clear purple with a lingering ring of lavender fosm. Aromas of grape, light blueberry and a hint of cookie. Palate was light to medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of cookie, grape and light blueberry with a smooth sweet finish.

Pours a very rich blueberry color. Smell is very strong of blueberry. Too sweet for me plus some odd aftertaste. Have another? Maybe after I forget how this one tastes...
