Breakfast at Tiffany's
Mikerphone Brewing

My parents generation would view the namesake as a highly regarded film. My generation would view this as a boring stupid song blasted at shopping centers around the country. Mikerphone views this as their blueberry and maple syrup infused berliner weiss. On to the beer:

We have purple colored beer, and above is a head with a shade of violet which slowly drops into a creamy lace. I take a huff of the aroma and am surprised very much that this smells like a breakfast cake. Blueberry pancake or waffle with maple syrup, heavier with the maple syrup, carried with melted butter.

The taste is not like the aroma. What is a warming and savory aroma brings a tart blueberry taste without much of that savory and sweet. It doesn't decimate the palate, and when it's paired with a medium yet smooth body with bubbles which massages, Breakfast at Tiffany's makes for an acceptable option at the brunch table.

 

 

Pours a purple red blueberry juice color with a light purple head that dissipates very quickly. It smells like intense maple syrup with hints of blueberries and sourness creeping through. The taste is mostly sour blueberries with a finish of slightly bready maple syrup. I didn't think I'd enjoy a blueberry pancake sour but they made it work. The taste is very unique and I can see it as something you love or hate. It's very lightly carbonated and goes down very smoothly. Overall a kind of out there experimental flavor but its a hit for me.

Thanks to The_Game for this one from Rookies BIF #4. 16oz can poured into 14oz teku. Poured a sold reddish-purple color with 3/4 inch of pink head that had good retention and no lacing.

Maple dominates the nose, with blueberry hiding in the background. The maple aroma lingered in the air throughout the life of the pour.

On the tongue, the base tartness of the style helped counter the overly strong maple.

The body was the expected light of the style, and had a nicely dry finish, which was a bit of a surprise given the sweetness of the maple.

Drinkability was good, the beer was an easy drinker, but I wouldn't want 2 in a row. Waaay too much maple.

Overall, a nice beer. A bit overpowering for me (a little maple goes a long way for me, and this beer had a lot of maple), but its certainly worth a try if you see it.

Not bad, but a bit weird. It says it’s a Berliner Weiss with Blueberry and Maple, and it delivers that like Tony Parker before he cheated on Eva. The blueberry is pretty tasty, yet the maple just seems a bit odd. Like when your chick takes her bestie with her on a date as a 3rd wheel “odd.” (Girl, be gone!)

If this was just blueberry, I’d like it a lot. But as it sits, it’s just ok.

 

 

 

Maple detracts from this for me

 

This opaque dark reddish beer has a fuzzy, uneven pink blanket.

Breakfast at Tiffany's is slightly tart maple blueberry pancakes via a full, fluffy body that finishes semi-dry.

Pastry sours for everyone!

 

 

 

 

A creative twist on a berliner weiss. Smells like slightly tart blueberry muffins with maple. The taste is very, very sweet with the maple and blueberry juice, then met by wheaty and slightly lemon base, combining for a sweet, tart, and airy berliner. Could see how this isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I really enjoyed the concept, fun beer! Even the purple blue color is fun though thin.
