BMan1113VR (913), Los Angeles (and Dallas, TX), California, USA Apr 30, 2008 $7 for 8% six-pack...had to try it. Pours with a pink head that is pretty thick covering a hazy purple-red body (uh-oh what did I get myself into). Aroma is of gatorade, cotton candy and blue berry. Sugar, blueberry and vinegar on the taste front. Suprisingly good lacing. From the taste, I would suspect that this could give someone a MASSIVE hangover. Fake Syrupy mouthfeel.
KornDogg (24), Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 8, 2008 Purple body with pinkish head... strong berry flavor, not a typical fruit beer, but refreshing... Decent fruit beer for AB, who would have thought?? I love this beer in the summer time... goes down smooth, quick and easy... had to buy a case... eurobier (18), snellville, Georgia, USA Oct 5, 2008 Best stuff I’ve had from AB actually leaves a lacing on the glass does remind me of carbonated grape Kool Aide not much on traditional beer taste and you can’t taste the alcohol but you can sure feel it. slipy120 (22), Michigan, USA Oct 3, 2008 Beer pours with a slight hint of blue in the head. The presence of berries was obvious. Average mouthfeel and carbonation. I like how the hops and berry flavoring matched. Not a great beer but quite refreshing and enjoyable. junon (144), Honolulu, Hawaii, USA Sep 30, 2008 Well its not blue. I dont really recall blueberries have much of an aroma but it does smell "berry". The alcohol is surprisingly masked and only noticable at the very end. The taste reminds me of cough syrup. I cant say that I am enjoying this at all. MaltOMeal (321), Land of Sugar, Texas, USA Sep 30, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours a cherry color into a dark cherry in the glass. A lavender head! Don’t see that often. Nose is of blueberries. Taste is like berry juice, not beer. Mouthfeel is thin but syrupy sweet and fairly well carbonated. Alcohol well hidden. Hard to drink it all though as it was very sweet; like drinking cough syrup.
