Parting words: I’ve been reviewing Atwater’s beers for years and they haven’t once made any sort of contact with me on social media or anywhere else. Not even a like or a favorite. That’s a little annoying but I don’t hold it against them. Some companies are good at social media and some aren’t. My annoyance in no way negatively influenced my review, but didn’t help either.
This beer is OK, but the nose is really weird. It’s called blueberry cobbler, but it tastes much more like blueberry pie than cobbler. There’s no biscuity-topping flavors. It’s just all cooked fruit. Heck, even the guy in the Atwater logo is carrying a lattice top pie, not a cobbler. Yes, it’s a minor quibble but it points to the confused state of this beer. There’s some blueberry in there but there’s not enough to make it actually taste like blueberries. I get that they were going for a baked blueberry thing here, but the toasty malt just makes it taste like the burnt drips that stick to the bottom of the oven after the pie is done.
I like, nay, love most of Atwater’s beers but this is a failure. Blueberry Cobbler is not recommended.
Sipology 
That is my husband’s favorite beer! He buys it up and then squirrels it away in some hidey hole downstairs. I am not a huge fan, but I admire the effort. And I don’t think they are awesome about social media…they post sometimes on FB and Twitter but not very often.
Ha! That’s funny! As far as fruit beers go, I think Ruebeus is my favorite. I have been known to squirrel that away!
