A: The beer is hazy yellowish purple in color—too hazy to see if there is any visible carbonation. It poured with a half finger high off white head that died down, leaving a large patch of bubbles that covered most of the surface, a narrow collar around the edge, and some lacing down the sides of the glass.
S: Light aromas of blueberries are present in the nose along with some hints of alcohol.
T: The taste follows the smell and has a little stronger flavors of blueberries along with hints of lactose and maple syrup. No bitterness is perceptible.
M: It feels medium-bodied and somewhat smooth and creamy on the palate with a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer definitely lives up to its name as you get the blueberries in the smell and taste and the creamy smoothness in the mouth feel. It wasn't that difficult to drink for something that is 9% abv and hid its alcohol very well.

Hazy blue-tinted orange with a finger of bright white head that's fairly quick to dissipate. Decent lacing.

Big creamy blueberry in the nose with a sour note that really does come across as yogurt. This continues to the taste. There's a certain maple sweetness to it, but with the heavy, heavy milky-creaminess, and slight sour twang, it definitely comes across as more yogurty.

Heavy bodied, with a full, creamy feel, and just a touch of creaminess.

This is not yogurt-inspired. It's straight-up blueberry yogurt in a pint glass. Would I drink this regularly? Hell no. But it's a crazy good novelty beer.

Enjoyed on draft from the brewery night before release. Red/Purple haze with a nice creamy foam on top. Fresh blueberries and malt on the nose, like blueberry pancakes. Very smooth and drinkable, I didn't get the maple syrup because I was enjoying it too much. I'd expect the maple comes through as it opens up or ages a bit. I found this brew to be delicious.
