I was expecting an ale with a hint of fruit, like Sea Dog's Blueberry Wheat (which I highly recommend, BTW), but this was something else entirely. Half regular ale, half fruity desert beer. It was very strange at first, took some getting used to.
I think they were trying to find a middle ground, to appeal to people who like dessert beers and people who like regular beers. And in that, they totally failed. It is far too sweet and tart and fruity for people who like regular beers, but not sweet enough for people who like dessert beers.
It is, however, very drinkable. You can sip, or you can just down the thing. Goes down easily. Tastes good, once you get used to the halfway nature of it. And maybe with the word 'organic' in the title, they were trying to go more for the hippie crowd than the beer drinking crowd.
Not one I'd buy again any time soon, but not bad.
