16 oz can into a tulip glass.
Pours an opaque golden amber color with the faintest tinge of blue. Has a soapy off-white head with moderate retention. Leaves a few splotches of lacing.
Smells like blueberry muffins. Maybe some pie crust. Simple, but what did you expect?
Tastes like a fruit cocktail with an uneven proportion of blueberries. Blueberry yogurt. Blueberry muffins. Blueberry blueberries. Again what are you expecting here?
The feel is medium-full bodied with moderate carbonation. Exceptionally creamy and smooth. Has a nice dry finish.
Overall, a very good fruited double NEIPA. There's not a lot going on here, but if you're drinking a beer called "Blueberry Contortion" that's brewed with lactose and Blueberry puree, I don't know what to tell ya. It tastes as advertised and it's done quite well.

16 oz. can.
Canned 03/10/21.
Moderate pour yields a nearly one inch off white head over a murky, golden orange body with some lacing.
Nose of blueberry and slight piney hops.
Taste is blueberry pie with vanilla ice cream.
Full stop.
Ok, not much vanilla, so I'd say blueberries and cream...
...or even blueberry shortcake?
Nice feel and overall, this hides the 8.2% abv fairly well and goes down easy.
Cheers to to the boys up in Hyde Park, VT for a dessert beer
that I'm having before dinner!!
