The 'Berryful' Beer Puts Forth a Deliciously Tart Blueberry Flavor

Highland Brewing, which has spent the past three decades growing into North Carolina's largest homegrown brewery, has launched a delicious new fruited ale that makes abundant use of tart blueberries.

The aptly named 'Berryful' fruited ale comes in at five percent ABV (alcohol by volume). Boasting an eminently fruity flavor profile, this particular brew was made with a combination of Apollo hops, white wheat and pilsner malt. This specific combination of ingredients makes for a beer that is accommodating to the flavor of tart blueberries as well as the recognizable blueberry hue, both of which come to the forefront.

Available at Highland Brewing and at retail stores across the southeast U.S. until June 2023, the 'Berryful' fruited ale is well and truly suitable for springtime sipping.
