This beer is our Woodstock Wheat but with the addition of natural blueberry flavoring. It has a very nice fresh blueberry aroma and flavor.

Pours a hazy, straw color. 1/4 inch head of an off-white color. Decent retention an decent lacing. Smells of blueberries, wheat, pale malt, sweet malt, and a hint of grass. Fits the style of a Fruit / Vegetable Beer. Mouth feel is sharp and clean, with an average carbonation level. Tastes of blueberries, pale malt, slight sweet malt, and grass. Overall, decent appearance, but weak aroma, body, and blend.

The appearance was the classic golden cloud of hefe-ness with a nice pinky finger head. It starts out with a pretty strong blueberry smell, it almost made me nervous to try it because I could smell the blueberry 2 feet from the glass. Don't get me wrong, i really did like the smell, very blueberry-ee. The initial taste isn't as sweet as you'd expect, with the traditional banana/clove taste trying to push through the blueberry. But at the end of the day, the blueberry wins in the aftertaste. I might try another glass(sampler size this time) if I find myself at Hog Haus again, but definately not worth a growler-full of it. You can only have so much blueberry.

On-tap at the brewpub, I tried this with my Hogs Breath Burger and it wasn't a good match. This beer is just the blueberry-flavored version of their hefe and it tastes EXACTLY like a cheap blueberry muffin. So if you like muffins from a vending machine or gas station, check this out, otherwise this is just a drinkable and artificially-flavored fruit beer. I'll pass.
