Glutenberg’s Blonde is the proud originator of the range, the pioneer of real good gluten-free beer. Airy and lemony, its golden colour reveals floral and slightly herbaceous notes, giving way to a dry and tasty finish. The brewery’s first official creation, it paved the way for success and continues to assert itself today as a thirsty beer that will charm all palates.

Can from the lcbo. Aroma of musty apples, wet paper, buckwheat, and some light lemon zest. The body is watery, the carb is good. The finish lacks any bitterness, finishes slightly sweet, with an odd wheat/apple thing going on. Yuck.

Pours clear gold with a small white head. It smells of grainy malt and lemon. The flavor has mild hops bitterness and grainy malt with some lemon. It’s alright.

Perfectly clear golden coloured body with a thinnish, single centimetre tall pure white head Aroma of nasty, super funky corn, sugar, millet and off-grains with a light yeat bite, some yeast and bready notes, but a non-existing and slightly nasty funk noticeable immediately when the nose is put up to the glass. Light-bodied; Strong funky corn and fake-malt notes with a lot of bread, yeast, fake sugar and stale funk noticeable throughout, with nothing enjoyable to catch and hold onto - this is purely off-putting flavours with a dash of yeast and bready qualities with some earthy and nut finishes that give it at least something else than the fake flavours. Aftertaste is dry, herbal and very funky throughout with a lot of nutty and earthy flavours, but the fake sugars and especially fake malts dominate in a bad and unsettling way. Overall, a very poor 'beer', but I suppose if you pretend to have some issues with handling glutens, this would be some alcohol; however, if you are in that category and pretend that you can't handle them, then just settle for something non-beer, please. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased fby my wife by accident, after running a marathon (USMC Marathon 2019) at home in Washington on 27-October-2019 for US$2,99 at Whole Foods in Pentagon City (Arlington), Virginia a few hours earlier, sampled at home in Washington on 06-November-2019 after forcing myself to get rid of this crap.

Can: Very clear, bubbly, extremely pale peach-yellow with a frothy white head. Scent is grain....maybe a little white grape. Taste is slightly bitter, grain malt, honey, corn. Very bland.....not very tasty at all.

Sampled from a can this beer poured a pale yellow color with a small foamy off white head that faded quickly. The aroma was perfume, herbal and off. The flavor was bitterish, astringent and off with light grain and medicine. Long off finish. Medium body.

Cannette 473 ml. Arômes de levure avec houblons herbacés. Notes légèrement citronnées. Faible puissance. Petit filet de mousse effervescente qui tient à peine quelques secondes sur un liquide doré verdâtre très clair. En bouche c’est pétillant et très citronné. Des tons de poivre, d’agrumes légers, d’herbes et de fleurs. C’est très subtil comme gout. C’est meilleur en bouche qu’au nez mais ça reste un produit très commun.
