Bumble Berry

Tap to rate

Bumble Berry is a light ale built around blueberry: it shows in the nose and again in a gently tart finish, with cracker-like malt in between. The brewers add spring-harvested honey, which they claim was lifted from very angry bees, and brew with real blueberries. This honey ale measures 5.3% ABV and 13 IBU.
