Slightly cloudy yellow. Smell is somewhat sweet like older lager. Decent co2. Initially this beer comes across a little rude so whatever. Yes, rude like many wheat ales. Glad to see this is not styled as a hefe, has very little wheat attributes. I know its styled as a blond but it is certainly more on the lines of a wheat ale. Perhaps leaning towards a wheat lager. Overall, I would probably appreciate a decent tasting cheap lager compared to this.

2013 ’vintage?’ Clear amber coloured body with a thinnish, one centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of funky malt, stale hops, flowers and a bit of spruce. Medium-bodied; Strong malt flavour with earth, metal, stale hops and not much of anything else - perhaps a light sweetness. Aftertaste shows the funky malt, funky hops and touches of caramel with the not pleasant metal and medicinal flavours. Overall, a pretty bad offering, not really worth trying, even for the novelty of the 24 ounce can (culprit). I sampled this 24 ounce can purchased from Merchant’s in Dearborn, Michigan on 02-August-2013 for US$2.99 sampled a day later at home in Woodhaven, Michigan.

12oz can pours copper with gold hues and weak near white head. The mild aroma offers up malts that sweeten up a vague faint citrus hop note as well as honey and a mat liquor pear esteriness. The taste is malty, sugary cherry hard candy mess and vague and sometimes resiny hops. How is this selling? A horrible IPA. Sure glad I didn’t go for a six of this or the big can. I don’t think I’ll try and finish this 12oz-er. Kitchen sink drain, here I come.

Sampled from a 12 oz can this beer poured a bright orange-amber color with a large creamy/soapy yellow-white head that lingered and left a bit of lacing. The aroma was sweet yeasty, bready and had a light citric hop presence. The flavor was sweet, tart and tangy with notes of Sweettart candies, lemon, bread dough and pepper. Medium length tart, tangy lemon and pepper finish. Medium body. Ok.

Canned @ home, courtesy of mencansail.gracias! Pours a clear golden orange appearance with an off white head that dissipates pretty quickly. Corn, sweet toasted malty, lemon, a bit floral nose. Tangy, cookie malty, weird citrusy, creamy flavor. Not all that good.

Tallboy from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours light amber with a foamy off-white head. Aroma is pretty much not much at all. Maybe a light hop but ? Med body. Flavor is light caramel with what must be floral hop. It starts sweet, ends kinda bitter, but like most Minhas beers I’ve tried, it’s not wholly pleasant.

On tap at SPSBF. Pours a clear golden amber with a white head that starts and remains at the edges. Aroma has minimal hops with earthy grains and backing hay. Flavor has some earthy grassy hops with a good amount of sweet hay and grains.

Can from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours light gold with a fizzy white head. Aroma seems more bubble gum than banana. Maybe there’s a touch of spice. Near med body. Flavor is messy floral/fruit. I’m not getting any banana, and the spice is pretty minimal. However, the finish does suggest spice, which might be very light clove. Ends a bit papery. Even gummy.

Can from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours light amber/gold with a slight fizzy white head. Aroma is light bready with some mild citrus. Med minus body. Flavor is a bit sweet, mucky bready, and there’s not really enough hop to write about - unless there’s some floral. For me the finish is not bitter at all. A little herby maybe.
