Kitty Kat Blues
Black Raven Brewing Co.

Look: Dark orange and opaque with a lofty off-white head that settles as a pillow and leaves great lacing behind

Aroma: Blueberry puree, fruit and juice, freshly baked bread, sweetened blueberries, light earthy hops, and graham cracker

Taste: Opens up with a huge front-loaded hit of raw blueberry fruit, followed by juice and sweetened berries that quickly develop depth. Some earthy and citrusy hops mix in and bready malt is ever-present through to the close

Mouthfeel: Full, slightly soft, medium-high carbonation, and soft and clean on the finish

Overall: I dig it. I love blueberries and off-the-wall beers so plunged right into this one and it’s good. The blueberry is definitely the focus throughout but isn’t overwhelming and the flavors/aromas come across as legit and not artificial. Overall, worth the try if you see it and enjoy blueberries

12oz can served in a tulip. Dated 27 Aug 2020.

Pours a medium amber, pretty clear, with a respectable head that dissipates to a couple millimeter thick cap and coats the sides of the glass. Smell is light, primarily blueberries.

Taste is blueberry, moderate grain, something slightly herbal about it.

Mouthfeel is medium bodied, maybe a little on the heavy side of that. Overall, it's a pretty good beer -- assuming you like blueberries.

 

 

can into glass
Very ample & sustained, off white, semi-rocky head. Beautiful orange & caramel tinged color. Malted blueberry floral aroma. The blueberry comes through in the taste, but there is a lingering sharpness that impairs the flavor somewhat. There is hibiscus in this. There was catnip in the recipe but I don't remember hibiscus. I think the recipe may have changed, as I would have rated this higher before doing ratings.

Flight at CopenRoss. Clear, dark golden, small creamy head. Aroma brings forth the blueberries, some savory notes. Taste starts with some nice toasted malts, before quickly turning over to the berries, and then finishing with the herbal catnip and a peppery snap.

I cannot imagine a beer that tastes like someone scraped the sugary tops of a lot of Kellog's Frosted Mini Wheats Blueberry into a quality ale could be any better. Head of the Class!

 

Love the color and the hint of blueberry finish.
A favorite!

 

12 ounce can, dated 1/16/19. Poured into a tulip.
Pours a deep copper, with purple highlights ( could be my subconscious because of blueberry). Orange tinted white head that left rather quickly.
Nose of citrus, particularly lemon peel and blueberry pancake. Don’t get me wrong, it’s very, very subtle.
The taste of this beer starts out similar to the nose. Citrus and resiny first, lemon peel, subtle but juicy blueberry. There is a fine graininess that evokes a pancake or muffin. Finishes dry and crisp with a lingering bite of underripe berry. Lighter body,
Interesting beer that keeps me coming back sip after sip.

 

 

This beer is a reddish amber color with a thin film of head.
Aroma of blueberries and vanilla, with some earthy, floral hops.
Taste followed the nose.
Not too happy with the mouthfeel. Starts off sweet and fruity, but the hops are a jarring aftertaste.

Tastes and smells like a blueberry muffin or pancake.

 

Appearance: Pours clear and amber colored with a nice head that leaves plenty of lacing behind

Smell: Blueberry and vanilla tones waft above the APA base; earthy hop tones

Taste: Blueberry and vanilla bean flavors spring forward, with a bready, earthy base underneath; not sure what catnip tastes like but I am guessing that is the unusual, menthol-like herbaceous flavor that appears in the finish

Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate carbonation

Overall: Quite an unusual beer and can't say that I particularly cared for it; worth a try for the creativity

Thanks, jheimbigner, for the opportunity

 

Good stuff! In fact, this is incredible!
