I am typically no huge fan of fruit flavored bears. I'll stick to a wine cooler, thank you. But I had these two in close sucession and my mind was blown by the difference.
Bar Harbor Blueberry Ale - This was a bland, boring, bitter, flat beer with blueberry taste masking a lousy beer. This beer is the dead person done up by the coroners make up person.
Sea Dog's Bluepaw Wild Blueberry Wheat Ale - I really liked this beer. The flavor was refreshing and had a great aftertaste. It was a little bitter, but in a very tasty and drinkable way. I was sad to see it go.
No competition. Sea Dog all the way. Not sure why blueberries only grow around nautical imagery. I grew up in New England and they were all over, but we were no where near the coast (15 -20 miles). But someone more inland might have a less skewed view of being away from the coast...I'm lookin at you Cleveland. Any blueberries around here??
lots of blueberries in the greater cleveland area. my uncle used to live on a blueberry farm...but, I'm afraid we are actually near the coast...the north coast.
