This is another trade show beer for me. I wantedto try something different and based on the salesman's recommendation I gave it a whirl. It poured a nice purplish color and a creamy head. The flavor was a bit too sweet for my taste. It almost reminded me of a very heavy very strong wine cooler. It didn't have much of an after taste or a strong bite(which I personally prefer). It did pack quite a punch, which made somewhat of a difference. All in all, just in my own pewrsonal taste, I did not care for this beer. It may have been better paired with a chocolate or berry dessert, or even better what maine is known for, lobster.

12oz bottle, best by January '13, poured into a Duvel tulip.

A: Clear, deep orange body under a finger of frothy white head. Ok retention, spotty lace. Not bad.

S: Blueberry muffin, faint hops, and a metallic twang. Ok, not great.

T: Sweet fruit up front, bready malt midway through, and a moderately bitter finish. Bitter blueberry skin on the aftertaste. A little boring - definitely no better than average for the style.

M: Light-to-medium body with a goodly dose of creamy carbonation. Really excellent.

O: An average blueberry ale. No more no less.

Cheers!

Into a pint glass:

A: slightly hazy amber colored body and has a moderate amount of visible carbonation. The head lasted longer than I thought.

S: blueberries, light malt

T: blueberries, malts taste toasted

M: light to medium, sessionable, toasty yet sweet aftertaste, slightly bitter finish

O: good for the style and me, I'd probably have it again
