On-tap at Ye Olde Saloon in Royal Oak.
Had some pretty high hopes after smelling this one, but it falls just a little flat for me. The aroma is a very nice, bright blueberry. On the taste, it's much more subtle and it merely (and probably appropriately) accents a decent enough pale, semi-wheat tasting base. It's easy drinking and not at all overbearing with the blueberry, but maybe it was my mood this particular day, but I was hoping for a little more, especially after getting such a nice nose from this beer.
My favorite thing about this beer may just be the name... reminds me of Legends of the Hidden Temple. Anyway, this is tasty, and an excellent "sessionable" brew.

On tap at the brewery. Not sure if this is the same as added here. The one I had was listed at 5.5% abv and not hoppy like an APA. But as a basic blueberry ale it was well done. Nothing groundbreaking but a solid offering. Plenty of blueberry taste in a good way (ie not adjunct or fake syrup).
