Found rating from notes from Dallas. I stayed at the Gaylord Texan, where they had two Franconia beers on tap. \"Texan Blonde\" was one, and an email query to the brewer confirmed that this was the same as \"Franconia Blonde\" which is probably the same as this... It’s a roundabout way of saying that I hope this rating is somewhere near the right place in the database. Anyhow, here’s the notes:
Pours a light gold with a massive head and aromas of... well... nothing. Flavor is sweet and very light. This is a boring beer.

On tap at the Arlington Fuzzy’s location. Frozen (with what could possibly be liquid nitrogen) goblet. Golden in color. Hard to tell the clarity as it is laden with ice crystals. Ice floating around with the white head that stays a while. Are you kidding me? This is ridiculously cold! Wonder if Dennis has seen how cold they are serving it... Aroma is really too cold to smell. Hints of grain, sweet malts, some berry. Taste is grain, sweet, bready, caramel, and grassy. Less fruit notes the Lucky Number 7. High carbonation that is somewhat hidden when frozen. Icy mouthfeel. WHY SO COLD?!
