"If you love blueberries, you'll love the smell of this ale. A great ale in my opinion. Pop the cap, and it smells like pie...........blueberry pie. The beer itself is a typical gold coloured beer with a whitish head. The aroma is blueberry pie, with a hoppish hint here and there. The flavour is mainly malt, with some sweet and sour blueberry back-up. "

"Golden clear body with a big fluffy white cap, retention is ok. Aroma is blueberry pancakes, this smells dam tasty. The aroma is real blueberries with out being overly sweet. Nope lied this isn’t pancakes its blueberry eggo’s. Liquid blueberry eggo’s is the taste the blueberry in the taste seems fake but the malt is smooth and rich tasting. I love the malt flavour in this fruit beer. For a fruit beer this is good I can see my self drinking this again."

[3] Review by beercronic from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada who has tried this beer once. (10/22/2007 12:16:10 AM)
"Poured out the standard mid-range rocky crown that has so-so retention and leaves some patchy lacing. Has the weakest of hazinesseseses to it and appears orangy gold. The aroma is very nice with all the blueberries right up front. They don't seem too fake but do come across on the sweet and syrupy smelling side. Honey is also found. Taste is not bad and actually seems to have more flavour when colder. Comes across on the watery side but is still very drinkable and I could easily drink mulitple bottles. Seems sort of wheaty sort of. Blueberries, honey, pepper. Light bodied and dry, ends with a suprisingly sharp bitterness that is shortlived."

[4] Review by pootz from between Calgary and Waterloo, Canada who has tried this beer a couple times. (8/15/2006 4:11:06 PM)
"Bottle:
Poured a bright golden ale into my glass....2 finger rocky cap with fair retention that lightly laces the glass.
Aroma: a perfumey blueberry smell that verges on synthetic...very light grains...that’s it.
Decent malt spine, creamy mouthfeel, medium body, full rounded charater.
Taste profile is a surprise: very malty up front... creamy chewy malts then hops and blueberry tastes flood the palate creating perfect balance ...the Blueberry extract has been tastefully used in this brew and the flavor is not overpowered with it... it actually is at a level where it mingles well with the cascade hops leaving a juniper berry impression....finish is clean and hoppy/fruity...light malt and blue berry after taste.
Although the Blue berry flavoring is from extract it has been judiciously used to add to the overall flavor of the malt and hop mixture and does not over power thus avoiding the obvious sythetic impression extracts leave which I find obnoxious. For this reason I’m scoring this ale up there with other decent brew pub ales. "
