I tasted a few after I let them ripen in the house and they did seem to be pretty sweet. Maybe it is the varieties that I have. I have Jersey and Elizabeth and a couple of other varieties that I don't remember what they were. I am getting a few berries theough by picking them just a little before they are ripe.

My Blueberries are starting to ripen. I planted them along the fron of
my house as a hedge. The Robin's however are trying to beat me to the
ripe berries. So I have been picking them before they are fully
ripened and letting them ripen in my house. I'm hoping that they will
taste just as good.
