22 oz bottle from Josh as part of a recent trade – nice one, thanks man!
Surprisingly dark pour. I was expecting a blueberry wheat affair along the lines of a Sweetwater Blue. Instead I got an amber body and a decent head. In fact, on reflection this beer is basically purple in color and has a pink head! Odd! A bit like a lager and black (see England in the mid to late 80’s for a full explanation of that).
Simple brew that holds up very nicely in its own category. Quite dry both upfront and in the finish which makes perfect sense when you consider the fruit content and its character.
Ultimately a pleasing, simple and low ABV brew that was very tasty. A nice change of pace and worth a try. Thank God for lower, sessionable ABV brews in the USA!!!
