Packing an awesome-gnarly-radical punch is our latest creation – Bodacious Blueberry Blonde Ale. When you take a sip of this one, you’ll be reminded that summer is still in full swing! Watch out – there’s a wallop of blueberry flavour and aroma in a clear golden blonde ale (we tried for blue, but it turns out you need a *lot* of blueberries to make that happen!) We brewed this one with fresh-picked local blueberries from Canaan Blueberries just outside of Ottawa. Thanks go out to to M&B for filling such a big order for us.

The beer pours a very translucent metallic gold colour with a generous white head which doesn’t last very long. As you pour the beer, the unmistakable smell of blueberries permeates the air. The aroma is blueberries, grainy malt, and musty hops….almost like stale blueberry eggos. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with average carbonation. The flavour is grainy malt with a bitter hop finish and a hint of blueberry. Blueberry beers always disappoint. -

Blueberry beers have always been hit or miss for me, but then, so are blueberries. I can’t think of any other fruit that is as inconsistent in flavouring from year to year. I suppose that is part of the problem when considering blueberry beers. Bodacious Blueberry Blonde is a dark metallic gold beer, pretty clear, with a small white head. The aroma is biscuit malt, and ripe blueberries. The flavour is biscuit malt, but only a hint of blueberry, and they seem to have become tart between the aroma and flavour stage. Like I said, hit or miss. Mark this as a miss.

Enjoyed a pint at the Highlander Pub in Ottawa. Pours a golden colour with a creamy small white head and some nice lacing. Blueberry fruity sweet aromas over mild grain. The cereal grain are a little stronger in the taste with the well-blended blueberries. Hints of sourness in the finish. Grain lingers. A pretty decent, refreshing blueberry blonde ale.

On tap at Arrow and Loon. Pours an average size foamy white head but goes away quickly enough. Has a light golden appearance, slightly cloudy. Aromas of blueberries are fairly noticeable. Some wheats and grains as well. Blueberry flavour is definitely the most dominant taste. Also some hints of various berries. A bit too weak for my liking.
