Blonde ale packing a punch of Citra hop flavour and aroma without being too bitter. A great summer sessional blonde.

500ml bottle [courtesy of Grumbo - cheers Graham!]. Cloudy, yellow-ish, golden colour with average to huge, firm, frothy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Spicy malty, grassy and citrusy fruity as well as minimally yeasty funky aroma, notes of lemon, lemongrass, hints of salty cracker. Taste is dry and slightly bitter, citrusy fruity and grassy hoppy, minimally yeasty funky, slightly spicy, pale malty basis without residual sweetness, notes of lemon, lemongrass, a touch of lemon drops, salty cracker.
Watery texture, dry palate, medium, prickly to lively carbonation.
Light, dry, refreshing, a tad overcarbonated - not bad.

26/6/2024. Cask at Gwaun Valley Brewery. Pours very slightly hazy golden orange with a frothy white head. Aroma is citrus, hops, lemon, straw. Moderate sweetness, medium bitterness. Moderate body, average carbonation. Drying finish. Well done.
