Blueberry Double Crunchee
Other Half Brewing - Center Street

Pours a murky blueish purple from the can, very brief head that settles to thin ring, no retention. Nose is toasted coconut, toasted oats/granola, suntan oil, vanilla, some faint berrylike aromas. Taste is kind of a mess - it has the generic sweetness of an overly sugared dessert. It's hard to pick out any particular flavor other than "sugar" in here, though on the finish there's a little tartness that I guess is the base beer. About half the adjuncts are completely washed out - I got no cinnamon, no maple, no almond. Mouthfeel is thick, carbonation minimal. No hint of the 9.5%(!) alcohol in a syrupy liqueur kind of way.

 

 

 

16oz undated can.

Pours dark purple with zero head or retention. Berries, vanilla, maple, granola, and a hint of cinnamon in the nose. Very sweet to start the palate with a solid tartness quickly following. Blueberry, vanilla, maple, and a hint of granola. Finishes with lingering sweet tarts.
Over my lactose threshold, just too sweet.
