Shipyard Smashed Blueberry (Pugsley’s Signature Series)

Shipyard Smashed Blueberry is the latest in the Pugsley’s Signature series. Buying $9 bombers of Fruit Beers isn’t my normal routine, but something told me to give this one a try. Wow, this is super dark for a fruit beer! Big aroma with some roasted malts and molasses as well. The taste follows the nose almost perfectly with the blueberry flavors in just the right amount to compliment the base beer. If you are looking for something big and fruity this is not it. The Shipyard website describes this as a hybrid between a Porter and a Scotch Ale and that is actually a very good description. A little pricey, but this was by far the best beer I’ve had from Shipyard. It just goes to show you why it is important to take a chance every know and then, I almost passed on this but ended up grabbing another bottle because it was so good!
