    Impressive flavor

    Blueberry flavor that really stood out only mildly sour and the color is an attention getter. There is some sediment in the bottles from the pureed berries with is I'm fine with .. in fact my first bottle drank was the bottom of the barrel and was thick with sediment which made it awesome because it was like enjoying a blueberry beer smoothie.

    Really Nice Sour Beer

    It's a new experience for me to drink a purplish beer but it turned out great. It's sour but not too sour and you can definitely taste the blueberry coming through but not in a sweet way. Very easy to make. I used frozen blueberries that I thawed. Definitely a make again in my future. My wife also likes it very much.
