I poured this into a pint glass. The beer was slightly chilled from being in the fridge but not too cold.

Appearance is an amber red, slightly clear. The head disappears fast at first but took about 3-4 minutes to be completely gone. Very nice color and hue.

Smell - has a distinct berry smell with a bit of citrus undertone.

Taste - At first sip there is a bit of a herbal taste, followed by delayed hint of blueberry and a touch of tartness. Very refreshing.

Mouthfeel - This is a thin beer, but with a slight swish in the mouth it becomes highly carbonated. This really made me open my eyes because of the intense berry flavors that immediately comes through. I easily missed this the first time I had the beer, but this completely opened my eyes to the great flavors hidden.

Drinkability - This is a very drinkable beer. I'm usually not a fan of high carbonation, but this allows one to savor the intense beer taste if you let the beer sit in your mouth. An easy beer to sip slowly and enjoy or to kick back a sixer with friends.

Very strong hints of blueberry but not to hoppy. Overall, a good beer but not a beer you could have more than 1.

Having this beer on-tap at the hotel bar at the hotel in Celeron, NY on Lake Chataqua I am staying at on vacation with my wife and her family. This beer draws a clear, medium golden color with a white head that’s about half an inch thick when first drawn and served. Settles eventually to a very thick ring lining the inside of the glass along with some very nice lacing. Also has a nice cluster swirl of surface foam. Aromas of some bready malts with slight caramel sweetness and a bit of blueberry and a slight earthy and spicy hop aroma. A similar flavor profile, with some just slightly toasted, bready malts with slight caramel sweetness and a nice hint of blueberry that’s rounded out with a slight earthy hop presence with a touch of spice. Has a smooth, slightly crisp, light to medium bodied mouthfeel with light to moderate carbonation. Has a clean finish and slightly dry aftertaste. Very drinkable. An okay beer, but nothing special. Wish I had known this brewery is actually owned by Anheuser Busch/In Bev before I bought it. Because I would certainly have chose a different beer at the bar instead of this had I know that head of time.

From a 12 oz. bottle into a Perfect Pint glass, a fairly vigorous pour yields a glass full of clear golden liquid with moderate precipitating carbonation capped by a thin, clumpy white head. There is definitely a blueberry scent on the nose, reminiscent of the artificial blueberries in boxed muffin mix. In the mouth, there's distinct blueberry and malt with very little hops. Mouth is a bit thin and watery. Overall: OK, one of the better "fruity" beers I've tried, but nothing special. Would not go out of my way for another.

Golden color, faint cloudiness under light. Light mouthfeel. Prominent artificial blueberry aroma. Smells a bit like a blueberry instant oatmeal packet. Low bitterness, fairly sweet. A bit tart. Unoffensive, easy to drink.
