Dogfish Head Black & Blue

This is the first fruit beer that has been reviewed on this blog and I'm glad that we started with such a great example of one courtesy of Dogfish Head. The Black & Blue pours a dark brown, almost copper color, with a white foam ring as a head. The aroma of this brew is exactly as intended: black berries, blue berries, and hints of other fruity aromas which are too overpowered by the black & blue. The taste is quite good, bitter blueberries with a lingering alcohol and sweet fruit flavor. A very good fruit beer and a great match for anyone who would like to have a brew as desert, which is not a bad idea.
