Blueberry flavored beer,tried it this weekend. I couldn't even notice a beer taste to it. It was more like a wine cooler, but not quite. It was refreshing and fun for a change. I would have it again, but it wouldn't be a daily drinker for me.

Sea Dog Blueberry Wheat is the way to go for blueberry beers, IMO. I've only had a couple blueberry beers and it was by far the best.

Grain Belt is very good now. Grainbelt Nordeast might be one of my favorite beers of all time.

I've tried over and over, but I cant get myself to appreciate Nordeast more than I should. If I have a Premium and a Nordeast lined up next to each other, I'm reaching for the Premium 10 out of 10 times. This honestly baffles me because I am a dark, heavy stout drinker.

Premium is so good, but I think it is a bit sweet to have more than 1-2.

I have to admit that I read the thread title as Grain Belt Flu, and giggled a little.

Hurting as in drinking a lukewarm six pack found at the county fair decades ago when I was 16 yrs old?

No thanks.
