Greg says: Poured from a 22 oz bottle into a goblet. Pours a light amber color. Nice sweet, fruit smell off the bat. The beer starts off with a nice wheat flavor followed by some blueberry and some spices. The blueberry is more of a hint than anything. The perfect amount in my opinion. Has a very nice sweetish finish. As you can tell by the score, I LOVE this beer. As of this writing there are some bottles floating around Atlanta. If you can find it, buy it. You won't be sorry. Edit: I also had this on draft. On draft it is almost perfection.


Jared Says: Poured from a 22oz bottle into a standard glass, and have tried on draft. Wow!!! What a great beer. The guys at Sweetwater really know their stuff. This is another great concoction from the warped minds of the Dank Tank Crew. This is not a typicaly sweet fruit beer for a summer BBQ . This is a smooth hoppy beer with undertones of blueberry which you catch just as you taste the beer. Greg is right....If you can find it....try it. This beer (on tap) is pushing some others for my top 5 favorites...it's that good.

JT says: I actually had the opportunity to have this both on tap and out of the bottle. Taco Mac provided the draft version which we (Greg you were there...and had one too) were introduced to from a knowledgeable bartender. T-Mac served it in a 10 oz glass because of the 8.0% ABV, drank it home in a traditional Belgian Double/Triple glass poured from a 22oz (the only format for Dank Tank beers). It resembles a lighter colored Belgian double, lighter amber than typical. I picked up the blueberry aroma right of the top. Not as distinct as Sweetwater's Blue, but enough to liven up the beer a bit more. The first sip was, well...liquid velvet. I didn't get a big hop flavor out of it because the beer comes across so balanced. As a lover of traditional Belgians, the blueberry undertone was not so overwhelming that it altered the beer. I would recommend this one to anyone looking for a twist on traditional Belgians. This would be awesome as a finishing or desert beer.
