Blueberry Ale

Tap to rate

A golden ale with a real blueberry heart — not syrupy, not candy-shop sweet, just the actual berry doing its thing. Light, wheat-influenced body, gentle floral hops, and a jammy blueberry note that carries through without ever taking over. Blue Point's summer session standard for two decades. Approachable in the best way.

◐ Taste

Blueberry carries through on the palate with natural fruit character that feels integrated rather than added. The light, wheat-influenced body develops a creamy smoothness mid-palate, balanced by restrained bitterness. Subtle sweetness rounds the profile without becoming cloying, letting the berry notes shine through.

◑ Finish

Medium-short and clean, with the berry note fading into a dry, slightly bready aftertaste. The finish leaves a refreshing quality that invites another sip rather than lingering heavily.
