Beaver Tail Blonde Ale

Clear golden coloured body with a decent two to three centimetre tall off-white head that stays afloat nicely and shows off the clear body. Aroma of yeast, bread, honey, grass, grains and very mellow notes, but the breadiness and yeast scents are by far the strongest here. Light-bodied; Very crisp grassy and biscuity flavours dominate with a lot of honey and bready notes, some yeast that pokes through and a mellow dash of very subdued hops, but nothing exciting or strong, of course. Aftertaste shows more of the same with honey and sweetness beating out the biscuity and honey notes and bringing a light grassy characteristic out as well. Overall, a pretty poor beer, but at least showing some honey and dry biscuity flavours to couple with the yeast and bread notes. I sampled this 19,2 ounce tall can, purchased from SafeWay in Fairbanks, Alaska on 23-June-2021 for US$4,99 sampled in my hotel room here in Anchorage, Alaska on 27-June-2021 after seeing the beautiful sight of Denali in full glory earlier in the day with my wife and three kids.

Clear pale yellow color, fluffy white head. Aroma of white pepper and lemon. Taste has lemon and pepper. Easy drinking.

Reviewed from notes.
The appearance is a light golden yellow colored body with a one and a half finger white foamy head, with some clingy lacing.
The smell is grassy, grainy and a little bit of sweet corn, just a little spicy.
The taste has a light grassy/graininess, sweet aftertaste, sticky finish.
The palate is light, sessionable, carbonation seems adequate for the style - nothing sharp, nothing watery and nothing spectacular.
Overall, nothing spectacular, but nothing bad, would I have it again, perhaps depending what else was served, just another American Blonde Ale.

Bottle: Poured a golden with white whispery head. Sweet grains and light floral. Nice corn and grain with a wet finish.

A golden ale with a thin white head. In aroma, faint grainy malt. In mouth, a lightly grainy mouth, with faint German hops, very mundane. On tap at Humpy’s Oct. 9 2011.

(tap) clear light tea with lemon colour, small white head; faint aroma of honey and flowers; flavour - like buckwheat honey without any sweetness though, bit meineral; long light bitter finish
