So I'm back in my hometown for the Fourth of July, and my old roommate picks me up at the train station, and on the way back home he stops at the package store (liquor store to those who don't know what the hell I'm talking about), and he picks up a six pack of Wachusett Blueberry Beer.
He tells me to try it, but I'm hesitant. I mean, I'm somewhat adventurous when it comes to food and drink. I'm not going to try that turkey and gravy soda that Jones makes, but I'm willing to try something new and different. But blueberry beer? Was this made by the people who put coffee in my Coke and nougut in my Reese's Peanut Butter cups?
But I try it and...it's not bad at all. In fact, after a quick burst of blueberriness (I'm not sure if that's a word, but it fits), it actually settles into your mouth without any blueberry shock or aftertaste. And I guess that's the test of a good beer: you don't really notice the flavor of it as you're sucking down bottle after bottle. But this might also be a turnoff to some. Maybe some beer fans will actually want to taste the blueberry, after all, what's the point if you can't?
Right now I'm on my third. Though I don't know if I will make this a regular purchase. Too many other good beers out there to bother.
