Long Trail Blackberry Wheat

[deadheadskier]

I can tell you why I don't like it. Because I like Beer, that tastes like freaking Beer!

I can't think of a single fruit Beer that I enjoy...no idea why anyone would want to drink a number 9.

The only thing worse than flavored beer is flavored coffee. I like my coffee to taste like coffee.

k thx

3 Belgian White's at Sushi Yoshi last night: 0.069 blood alcohol

3 Coffee Stouts at the brewery tonight: 0.137 blood alcohol

I discussed this with Matt, the brewmaster at the Long Trail. Coffee Stout is 8% alcohol. Most of their beer is 4% alcohol.

I don't care for Blackbeary Wheat.

Stout is one variety I can tolerate a hint of flavor

I stick to pretty much Pale Ales, IPA's, Ambers, Porters and Stouts

My staple beer is Smuttynose Shoal's Pale Ale, but I probably drink six beers a month.

....wine on the other hand.....

In what amount of time??? One shot after those 3 Belgian Whites could be a DUI....makes you think,..

As for if beer has a fruit flavor..well sometimes I want budweiser and sometime #9..now a bacon flavored beer..that would kill two birds with one chug!!!!

A beer every 30 minutes or so. Wait 20 minutes after the last one before using the breathalyzer. I now have a hard cutoff at 3 beers if I'm driving. Sucks living on a road where the state police are looking for any possible excuse to pull you over.

I've got nothing against the concept of fruit beer- beer should taste like beer, fruit beer should taste like beer with fruit. However, I find that, much of the time, the base beer isn't very good to start with, and the flavors added are too strong, too sweet, too weak, or taste nothing like the intention.Overall, I think wheat beers are the best base for adding fruit flavor.

too light / dry, most of the wheats i like aren't filtered which gives them more body. i'm glad they put it in the variety case though cuz mrs snowbunski likes it!

not totally against the fruity thing - prefer citrus flavors though. i'm diggin the sam white seasonal these days

All I can say is ATLEAST a 6 of them will be purchased by myself this afternoon and consumed as a "warm up" prior to the New England Clambake themed party I'm going to at my State Dental Convention going on at The Mohegan Sun Casino tonight/tommorrow. It's been one of THOSE days!

Good thing I bumped the thread!

I bought a case of them this past weekend..I think I might have a few left..that's the longest a case of BB wheat has last me..the quickest I've consumed a case is perhaps 1.5 days..lol..they go down like water..

Big fan of almost all Long Trail offerings. Blackberry Wheat doesn't do it for me though.

I always have some on hand because we had a friend who loves them, she drinks them like a man.... LT Belguim White is nice.

If I had my choice of an unlimited supply of any VT beer it would have to be Magic Hat Single Chair.

Had a 22oz. Vermonster from Rock Art last night. Good stuff, 10% abv.

hate it...i prefer beer flavored beer...not blackberry,apricot, lime, orange, cranberry, tutti fruitti, or anything light. Hoppy IPAs being my favorite.

my wife (girlfriend at the time) used to own a bar in portland, we sold a lot of Magic Hat...got invited to their halloween party at the brewery in Burlington...they had a cross between the blind faith IPA and the Humble Patience, just something they were playing with in house...really hoppy, but combined with a smooth, creamy, malted taste...called it #43 or something like that...one of the best beers I've ever had. I really like their HiPA too.
