Boulder Beer Sweaty Betty Blonde

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

Clear Pale gold in color wiht a fine white head. Nose is mildly flora hops. Mouthfeel is fizzy and tangy. Flavour is similar floral hops, but restrained. finish is a little dry, grassy and herbal.

The aroma is slightly yeasty with a touch of fruit and spice. The beer bours a light hazy yellow with a small white head. the flavor is light with some citrusy overtones and a bit of bitterness.

Bottle (12oz). Poured very pale yellow with a small diminishing white head. Sourish lemony aroma, very mild, some yeast and weak grain - gets progressively more sour, almost geuze-y as it warms. Taste is very disappointing - weak, fizzy then flat, there’s hints of hops and malt and fruit and sourness, but it ultimately feels like a fizzy ade. Possibly the worst blonde I’ve tasted - no wise cracks!

Pale smeared light lemony yellow color with some clearish edges. Finger high cap of firm creamy white foam that keeps. Lace breaks up quickly to reveal a glazing and some left over specks. Aroma is lightly lemony and grassy with a fair exposing of wheaty tang, hints a bit of candied sugar sweetness underneath. Flavors are quick and mild. Airy wheat tenderness and tang thats non-lasting. Bits of lemon are barely squeezed in along with a bit of grassyness. Has a small dryness in the finish from some kind of tiny hopping action along with touches of plain hard water and stale marshmellows. Which brings us to the body of the beer; a light and mild tone with a light watery body with enough carbonation to break the surface of complete boredom but not to keep it above average. Where’s the wheat texture? An OK to seldomly enjoyable beer. Not much to it. Just not cutting it for me as any kind of wheat beer.

Bottle. Pours a clear amber with an average frothy white head that was lasting. Average hoppy, pine and citrus aroma. Medium body with bitter finish. Medium bitter and citrus flavor with good lasting finish.

Hands down the worst beer I’ve ever experienced and also the only beer I’ve ever sent back. I had this draw at Old Chicago and it smelled and tasted like fermenting applejuice and Windex. Actually, it doesn’t even taste like beer.

Bottle. Pours a rich gold with yellow highlights... great carbonation, pleasing presentation. Aroma is faint hops and citrus. Pleasing aroma! Flavor is clove, banana, and bubblegum. Pretty good. Palate is subtle, but it does the job. A great beer.

Bomber - Poured a pale yellow in color with a white head that quicklyreceded to a rim around the glass. Aroma is fruity with a minor amount of the expected clove/bandertoneana. Slightly sour with a malty undertone. Does not have the yeastiness that I would expect from a wheat beer. This is only a fair wheat beer and not one that I will choose to repeat very soon...
