WillieV (159), Maryland, USA Apr 20, 2008 Bottle: A very interesting deep red pour with a thin light pink head to it. Scent is very sweet. Not a beer by any means. Taste is of a mild sweet red wine.
iwc046 (20), Kansas City, Missouri, USA Sep 7, 2008 This in no way resembles a beer - honestly tastes more like a fruit juice than anything. Hard to evaluate as a beer - head was pink and frothy then quickly disappeared, palate is weak and watery, no real defining taste (even blueberry). Don’t go out of your way but if someone has one take a sip because you would never believe this is an 8%. j_b (739), Rochester, New York, USA Sep 6, 2008 Interesting. Looks like grape juice and palate tastes a bit like it, but has very nice lacing. Also the booziness comes through a little and I enjoyed that aspect. Didn’t come off as TOO sweet to me considering the style. SkyinBrian (400), Collinsville, Illinois, USA Sep 6, 2008 looks and smells like grape juice. Taste reveals the blueberry and is nicely balanced between the tartness of the berries and sweetness of the beer but after a while it reminded me of a malternative with a shot of fruit wine dumped in. Extra points for the fake brewery name. JustinFromAL (62), Birmingham, Alabama, USA Sep 6, 2008 Bottle. Grape Juice? To sweet, felt like drinking watered down blueberry pancake syrup. wcampbell (420), Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 6, 2008 Absolutely terrible. Pours purple grape juice color. Very sweet grape juice flavor, not surprisingly. This is nothing like beer that is actually brewed with blueberries. Tastes like budweiser with blueberry juice. Very thin for a strong beer. Did not drink the whole thing. Very watery and way too sweet.
