Beers similar to Half Fancy

Pale Ale·Canada·5.3% ABV·One of 737 Pale Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Half Fancy's fruity and sweet character. A hazy pale ale brewed with blueberries and lactose, pouring a reddish purple under a frothy, pink-tinged head. Berry and biscuit meet in the aroma, with a light sweetness behind them. Blueberry and cream carry the flavour, lifted by a touch of lemon that keeps the fruit moving. The body is smooth and rounded, and a clean, low bitterness closes it out. Fruit-forward, though the blueberry never takes over entirely.
