Lightest pale yellowed fruit ale offers bittersweet blueberry essence that quickly diminishes to washed out phenol drear. Disappointingly, inviting blueberry waft outlasts flavor profile and floral-herbal backup becomes non-factor. Fizzy Pez-candied tartness recedes.

Sweetly compact blueberry pie theme enlivens embittered fruited hop fizz and brisk mineral water flow of great medium-bodied amber ale. Wheat wafer wisp wallows inside raspy huckleberry-banana-lemon thicket and precarious herbal clove-mint innuendo. Preferred over souring Sea Dog Blueberry Wheat as tart dessert sipper. On tap, massive blueberry-seeded tartness overrides arid hop acridity to honeyed wheat bottom.

‘Wild’ is right! Peculiar pinkish mauve dessert beer piles on wafting blueberry pungency. As clamorous sweet and sour blueberry plot mellows, soda-fizzed cranberry, boysenberry, and raspberry tartness amplifies syrupy candi-sugared finish. Despite fructose-sucrose overload, malt-y fruited libation avoids cloy saccharine aftershock.

Exacting blueberry muffin theme seeps through red grape nicety, raspberry tartness, and honey-licked cereal-grained linger of fruity dark golden ale. Soft-toned hop fizzing advances soapy metallic whim to no ill effect. Sadly, 2011 tapped version lowered rating. Sulfuric acidity and metallic tinniness seeped into milder bittersweet blueberry pie whir, flattened honeyed wheat backbone and briskly carbolic lemon-licked spritz.
