Hazy golden color with a fine white head on top. Malty, mild fruity and mild citrus hoppy. Ok body. Ok bitterness and moderate sweet. Average to rich carbonation. Caramel malty, mild fruity and mild citric. Decent thirst quencher in the sun.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a pale yellow color with a large soapy white head that lingered and produced some lacing. The aroma was tangy citrus and sugar. The flavor was tangy and yeasty with some citrus and must. Drier than I expected. Long tart and tangy finish. Medium body. Eh.

Light golden in colour with a thin white head of less than 1 centimetre. Light aroma of wheat, orange peel, lemon and a slight sweetness. Medium to Light-bodied; Strong initial taste of malt & citrus for the style. Lingering sweetness rests on the palate for a few seconds after the sip. A bit of hops in the next sip, but the second is also a bit more watery than the first. Aftertaste is a bit subdued; a bit of the wheatie taste, a small amount of the sweetness, and an even smaller amount of the hops. While not a great beer in the grand sceme of things; this beer is decent for the usually bad representation of the style. Worth trying if you actually like blondes: the beer style, not the hair colour :) I bought this twelve ounce bottle from Beers of the World in Rochester, New York.
