Deja Brew – Blueberry

A couple of weeks ago some coworkers and I brewed four batches of beer at a place called Deja Brew. Tonight was our night to go back and bottle. Once again, it was a ton of fun. Took WAY longer than I imagined. Must have been 3 and a half hours. We were darned lucky that there were a dozen of us other wise I’d still be there right now. The best part of brewing with such a large groups was that we got to brew four different beers, but each person got to pick how much they wanted to bring home. Given the amount I have on hand at any given point, I knew the wife would kill me if I brought home 2-3 cases of 22oz bottles from this brewing deal, so I brought home 12. A perfect number as far as I am concerned.

So I get home and I feel like I have no choice but to review one of these fine brews. I’d love to review all four in one post…drink four 22oz bottles in one sitting? Hmmm….probably not a good idea.

The blueberry is a very light beer. I don’t have ABV details on any of the beers we brewed, but this one must be less than 5%. It pours a sexy golden color with a couple of fingers worth of bubbley.

The brew is malty sweet. When thinking of other blueberry beers, two come to mind: Wachusett and Sea Dog. Between those two, our creation is much closer to the Sea Dog because it is so sweet and lacks any real bitter/sour flavor.

I’m Lost in the Beer Aisle, and I approve of this beer.
