Notes
If you want an easy drunk this is it. At 8% ABV and the sweetness to hide it this could easy be called the "Date Rape Beer"

So Dino brings over this beer the other night. It's a Blue Berry beer. I think to myself this might be good, I do like Sweetwater Blue. So we pull out the glasses and pour. Purple, I mean DEEP purple like Grape soda Purple, and dark too, even the head was purple. The aroma was very potent of the blue berry but not enough to turn me away. The first sip hits me hard with a sweet blast, POW. Still not bad though, I would not drink this on a regular biases. I am looking forward to using in beer bread or pancake syrup. If I were to drink this again, I would drink only 1 as it is 8% and so sweet that you cannot taste the alcohol in it. Just be careful drinking the "WILD BLUE"


Over all I would give it a 3 out of 5 for originality but it is a ruff drink to consume.
