Jam Band burst onto the scene this year as an improvised fusion of dark berry flavors and zippy citrus chords. The rhythmic grooves of blueberry, raspberry and tart cherry accompany a simple malt base to create an easy-drinking, all-season beer worthy of an encore.

On tap at Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger, as Boulevard Jam Band Berry Ale. Deep red colour, large off-white head. Aroma of red berries. Distinct flavour of red berries, moderately sweet, low bitterness, dry finish.

12oz can with dates, came in the variety pack
Looks purple, just like the can. Smells like sweet hard candy, or raspberry jam. Taste is very similar, with a breadth of fruit flavors resting on top of a malty pillow
A very tasty fruit beer, balanced, not too sweet, and with a variety of flavor

Presentation: 12 oz. can with the canning date etched on the bottom. Served in a Rastal Harmony tumbler.
Appearance: The dense, pink colored, one and a half finger head stays around for a long time and leaves behind a lot of lacing that covers the entire glass. It's a hazy, pure red color when held up to light.
3.50 Smell: It's a sweet, slightly musty smell of ripe raspberries and canned cherries.
Taste: It's juicy and fruity with notes of raspberry, cherry and a hint of blueberries in the background. It's mostly sweet but there's some sour tartness that comes through as well.
Mouthfeel: It's quite light and moderately smooth with a touch of creaminess. Carbonation is low.
Overall: It's a simple, easy to drink, fruity beer that doesn't blast the palate with sourness or sweetness. It does a good job of offering pleasant fruit flavors without overwhelming the senses.

Eugh, people actually like this? The flavors listed on the can sound very appealing, as someone who likes fruits, however, the taste of this mixture reminds me of a low quality Applebees special mix drink made with low quality liquor.
I can see why a single 12oz can was only one American dollar.
