Boulder Beer Sweaty Betty Blonde

Brewed by Boulder Beer Company
Style: Wheat Ale
Boulder, Colorado USA

12oz, no date. Pours a hazy pale yellow with a small, white head--looks like a wit. Aroma of grain, citrus, light banana and spices. Taste is much the same. Light bodied, mod carbonation. An above average wheat, and like most wheats, this is pretty refreshing. You don’t necessarily need to seek this one out.

I picked up a case on July 4th to share with my family; drinking the final bottle tonight. Pours a hazy golden color with aroma of wheat and spices. Flavor is initially sweet, which gave way to a spicy finish. Above average flavor for an American wheat ale.

bottle... slightly cloudy yellow pour , no lace . sweet malt aroma . flavor is very light some spice and malt . very thin/watery and a bit metallic at the finish . not great

Bottle. Aroma of a stale spicy malts. Golden body with thin white head. Flavor was flat, metalic, spicy and a harsh bitterness. Man this was not good but if you buy it you must drink it. Metalic aftertaste on palate.

Bottle. I drank this right after drinking a bottle of Franziskaner Hefe so maybe it isn’t a "clean" rating but by comparison it was weak. Almost no head to speak of. Bit of a salt taste on the finish but not bad. Texture was a bit oily. This beer would go well with mexican or other spicy foods.

On tap @ Mellow Mushroom. Clear yellow beer with tiny white head. Aroma is strong with bananas, smoked malts, yeast spiciness and some sweet malts. A lot going on. It turns out the big banana aroma isn’t the main flavor. I taste Vienna type malts, yeast spiciness, apples and then some banana. Real interesting beer.

from a bottle. It pours a hazy straw/yellow. Aroma is bready yeast and banana, a touch of spice. The taste of this beer is banana up front, a touch of lemon and light spicyness throughout the palate. Watery finish, which is acceptable for the style.

Bottle courtesy of matta. Hazy golden yellow with overcarbonated head. Sweat yeasty aroma followed by some skunk. Flavor again has some euro-skunkiness going on. Maybe bottle was going bad, don’t know? Looking at these scores though doesn’t seem to be too far off.
