Deliciously refreshing, Fuller’s Summer Ale is the signal that heralds the start of warmer weather. They say one swallow doesn’t make a summer, but your first swig of this crisp blonde ale might just prove otherwise.

Bottle. Golden colour with a fast disappearing white head. Sweet malty nose with some hints of hops. Sweet malty flavor with a thin mouthfeel. Some zesty hints. Not much bitterness in the aftertaste. Pretty boring for a Fuller’s beer.

Bottle, Sainsbury’s Heyford Hill, Oxford, 29-06-06. Pours a very bright golden colour, great clarity to it. I really didn’t get much in the aroma stakes possible citrus notes but not much, beer tasted a bit drab and thin really found this quite bland. A dissapointment from Fullers.

Blond color, poor head. The aroma is lightly metallic, with very light yellow apples. The taste is poor, with a very light citrus and honey touch, the bitterness is simply missing. Making love in a canoe.

(Bottle 50 cl) Pale golden with a small, dissipating head. Lovely fresh, hoppy aroma. Light character, no real body or alcohol with only a discreet bitterness. The wheat adds a slight acidity making this a fresh and quenching summer beer. 280202

A pretty beer if lacking in other areas. Perhaps Blonde Ales just aren't my thing. Thin beers do better for me with a slightly bitter bite and this one is sweet caramel. A good choice if you don't want any mouthfeel in your beer.

A yellow beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of straw, honey, and bees wax. The flavor is also sweet - too sweet for me, and with notes of honey and bees wax. The honey makes the mouthfeel sticky. The end is dry.
