This ain't your grandma's fizzy blueberry lager. Blueberry Cobbler is a copiously blueberried glass of goodness with real cinnamon and vanilla added. It's purple, not because we add coloring, but because we use natural blueberries. So go ahead and sneak a slice. We won't tell.

12oz bottle poured into a flute glass
A- pours a clear deep golden-orange color with a small fizzy and foamy white head that reduces to a grin around the edge
S- smells just like a blueberry pastry; big cinnamon aroma with a toasted malt backbone that resembles flaked pastry crust, the vanilla addition adds aromas of sticky bun icing. The blueberry is subtle and adds a nice sweet & fruity aroma
T- cinnamon stands out immediately, quickly followed by a creamy and sweet vanilla, resembling vanilla whipping cream, finishes a bit tart with flavors of unripe blueberry carrying out into the linger
M- medium-light body with moderate carbonation leads to a slightly foamy mouthfeel that continues into a crisp dry finish
O- quite a unique beer, in true FB form, it's amazing how they can resemble food with the aromas/flavors of their beers. Definitely worth a try

Funky Buddha comes out with a wide range of beers. If you visit the taproom you will find 15 to 20 ready to roll. We were in town for the Blueberry Cobbler release. The ale was a smooth vanilla finish and some nuttiness, liked baked goods. The color is stunning at a light purple. They really got the flavor on this one.

This beer pours pale red but fills to a dark, cloudy red-violet with a large, lumpy foam that's white with a barely pink hue, settling in mounds.
Smell is graham and half-baked cinnamon oats with touches of blueberry and vanilla-spiked french toast.
This beer comes off as well-carbonated and tangy with a surprisingly full, round and soft body and a semi-wet finish, where blueberry takes the fore, but makes room for those grahamy-wheat and cinnamony-oat scone/cobbler attributes that it successfully nails. A little vanilla cola runs along the background making this overall quite sweet, but not overpoweringly so, where the freshly made blueberry filling builds to a nice plateau.
Thankfully it does not contain any medicinal or tart attributes like I expected. Another surprise was how good of a choice it was to execute a wheat beer of this quality for adding blueberries to--this beer and treatment play well together.

Bottle poured into a pint glass
Two finger pink hued frothy foam cap settles to a solid layer over a reddish brown liquid with a steady stream of carbonation
Aroma of wheat, cinnamon, spices,
Taste is wheaty cinnamon
Low sudsing
Can't seem to find the blueberry but definitely found the cinnamon. reminds of a summer wheat ale version of winter warmers
Nice beer

Pours with very little head, smells like fresh blueberry cobbler (including the aroma of a crust/crumble), tastes like a wonderful desert beer.
