Cloudy like a wheat beer, Blønd is a (relatively) low ABV session pint that packs in all the body, bitterness and tropical fruit flavour of a much bigger beer.

Cask-conditioned and unfined at the City Arms, Cardiff 3/4/2016. Golden and slightly hazy, with a decent, off-white, head. Aroma of tropical fruits and grassy hops, Flavour was sweetish, with more fruits, weetabix malts and a dryish finish. Good.

Tap. Sheffield Tap. 8th March. Cloudy, dirty gold. Film of grey head. Not a looker. Pithy , pink grapefruit and pineapple. Taste is pithy dry, a lot like chugging the pink grapefruit juice I had with breakfast. Crisp, fresh and clean palate. Finishes more of the same. Very nice.

Draft at the Great British Beer Festival 2014, Day 1 - London. Pours foggy yellow with a relaxed, creamy white head. Nice hops in this kid, with notes of dried citrus, pithy lemon, some rind, minerals. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Dry finish, sandy, with more pithy citrus fruits. Very good.
