Served in 12oz tulip. Poured a hazy/cloudy yellow-gold color with an inch of white head that had no retention and very light lacing.
The aroma was on the subdued side of typical for the style, mellow yeast, soft grains, and just a very light fruit scent. On the tongue, exactly the same, no real Blackberry taste and just a very understated version of the expected flavors.
The body was on the light side of typical for the style, and had a pleasantly dry finish. Drinkability was OK, I drank it quickly and easily enough, but I probably won't have it again. Overall, an OK brew, probably worth a shot if you see it, but if you skip it, you won't be skipping much.
