Brewed with fresh harvested spring honey and infused with fresh blueberries. A light, refreshing ale with a nice blueberry aroma, crackery malt flavors, a hint of sweetness and a refreshing blueberry finish.

Really good for what it is, a fruit ale. However, it cannot compete with Fat Head’s IPAs, which are world-class. Bumble Berry is a great summer beer or a beer for people who want something a little less bitter than their IPAs, yet still desire something that has some flavor. Overall, I think Fat Head’s did a great job brewing a fruity beer that beer drinkers looking for that style of ale will certainly enjoy!

Pours a gold color with a minimum head that disappears quickly. Aroma of tangy blueberries. Taste is tangy blueberries and other spices. Crisp and dry.

12oz cans in Ohio.

Amber to gold pour, and almost frothy. Aroma hits you in the face with blueberry and honey.

This is a very sweet tasting beer, and not very bitter. The honey and blueberry flavors work pretty well together, and make this really tasty as a 'once in a while' thing. Great in the summer heat.

12 oz cans canned 6/22/23 into a Becher glass.
L: Pours slightly yeast hazed light apricot with a thin head that recedes quickly to zero, lite carbo bubbles, no lacing.
S: Pungent blueberry, citrus, cereal grains, plastic/PVC.
T: Blueberry muffin, peach, light citrus, a hint of melon, light yeast, honey throughout, lightly sweet overall, it is wafting in the palate with lighter tastes, has an ill-fitting halo of plastic.
F: Gently brisk, watery, glassy medium-light body with a mildly juicy and clean feel with a medium length lightly dry finish.
O: I can tell there's a decent honey ale here however the blueberry flavor tastes plastic and fake. It is poor in its style. **Added note later: I poured a can into a plastic cup and it tasted better that the previous glass pour. So I've adjusted and raised my rating a bit.

I don't know about "Most refreshing beer in America", but not bad. A pretty amber color with significant head. Blueberry to the nose, tamed by the honey mix in it. Surprisingly not sticky like some mixes on this order. Not bad at all.

Slight light khaki colored froth with limited retention... Completely translucent golden yellow with a bit of carbonation rising throughout... Light nose of blueberry, wheat and corn... Flavor profile is interesting and unique... The blueberry is subtle but still present in each sip... This sits a top a malty base with a hint of honey mixed in... On the lighter side of medium bodied... Even and consistent... Interesting and unique summer offering...
