The Brew Review: Episode 14 Wild Blue Blueberry Lager Review

Hey brewcrew,

Welcome back to the Brew Review. In today’s episode I tackle one for the ladies or some of you more feminine men (not that there is anything wrong with that). Today we are drinking Wild Blue Blueberry Lager.

I was excited to get into this one because we all know how much I love a good old fashioned straight fruit flavored beer. Well, that may not be so true, but Petry had a sixer of these over at his house and I felt like I had to taste one for you guys at least.

If you are to lazy to watch the video then here is a brief synopsis of what went down.

Wild Blue pours an absolute ridiculous color. It is purple/pink and when it settles almost looks like a kiddie cocktail. Seriously who busted our the grenadine and 7 up? Anyway the nose was more subtle than you would have thought and I was amazed to find a little bit of hopiness to it that was quite pleasant, but the major smell was a sugar like berry aroma that reminded me of the inside of a nutrigrain bar. After the first sip I was repulsed, but what can you expect from a beer that pours that color. The 8% ABV is way too much for the flavor of the beer which is just straight sugar and fake fruit juice. This one is a total pass, that is unless you plan on pouring this over crushed ice and treating it as if it were a daiquiri of some sorts. Then you might just find it refreshing on a hot day on the beach.

2 out of 5 stars, don’t waste your time on this. Berryweiss is more rounded and has less heat to it.
