American-style ale, clean and crisp with a gentle fruit finish and a medium blueberry nose.

Hazy golden pour with thin, clingy white coating. Aroma is the best part - seems natural rather than flavored. Flavor is okay, but underwhelming blueberry there. Fairly smooth and clean, just not amazing.

Pint on draft at 43 North in South Portland, Maine.
Appearance: Clear light amber. Slight eggshell head recedes quickly.
Aroma: Blueberries. Some crackers, some grass.
Taste: An English ale type character and a blueberry finish. Not much hop. Somewhat like a Bass ale chasing a blueberry muffin. Pleasant!
Mouthfeel: Very light. Easy. Fruity (duh).
Overall: Not a big blueberry beer fan but this is a winner. The blueberry isn’t cloying and it’s a nice accent.

Labor Day weekend reviews, so far.
A- Out of the tallboy goes a pale pink brew into my goblet. A white head forms just over one finger retaining decently. A small ring results and it leaves only spotty lace.
S- Reminds me immediately of a blueberry pancake with a moderate sweetness and the berry flavoring. Not really that much going on here.
T- The blueberry flavoring is dominant again and it reminds me of a taste I would find in a soda. Medium barley sweetness, yeast bread, a hint of tartness and pale fruit esters.
MF- Moderately carbonated light-medium overall body. The texture is slightly foamy frothy and it does come off as thin at times.
Nothing bad but also nothing I would probably go back to. The blueberry flavor is very obviously from a flavoring but at least it is somewhat balanced in.

Blueberry can be too sweet. This w one hits the mark. Good color solid ale flavor and a mild blueberry taste.

Smells like stale beer. No blueberry detected at all except for the ones floating in the beer. Taste is terrible and bland.
