Commercial Description:
This light bodied blonde ale is perfectly balanced with a touch of Crystal hops for bittering and aromatics. Fireman's #4 is a great choice on any hot Texas summer day or pair it with spicy foods to help you put out the fire.

Bottle. Pours gold in color with a frothy white head that disappears quickly but leaves a small blanket over the beer as you drink. Aroma is very light with a hint of yeast hops, and sugar. Taste is sweet but bland and somewhat metallic in flavor. Mouthfeel is wet, very thin, and filled with carbonation. Overall its better than Bud but not something I am ever going to drink on the regular.

Tastes off to me. It was a beautiful looking blond color.... absolutely, but the flavor just turned me off. No real hop aroma to me either.

Pours with a small, white head covering a hazy yellow body. Decent lacing. Aroma of butter, fruit grass and pepper. Tastee is a bit bitter and very grassy. Fizzy mouthfeel.

Memory is hazy on this one. Yellow and medium head. Decent hops and slight floral taste. Crisp and clean.

On tap at Flying Saucer - Houston on 07/27/08. Very clear pale yellow body with a medium creamy white head. Corn, grain, and honey aroma with light floral hops. More corn and very light grain with a bit of faint honey and dry hops. Light body with moderately high carbonation.
