Steelhead Barracuda Blonde

Brewed by Steelhead Brewing Co.
Style: Pilsener
Burlingame, California USA

Draft at Steelhead in Irvine CA. Pours like a lager with no smell and is slightly bitter. Basically this beer is close to tasteless. Try something else at Steelhead.

Orangish amber color with a thin, wispy white head. Fresh grass aromas with a touch of lemony dishsoap hops. Lots of corn crowds the tongue initially. Some light hoppiness comes through later and gives the beer a refreshing smack. Quick, but relatively clean and crisp finish.

A really weak and watered down blonde, a dirty blonde if you will. Takes like dirty dishwater and grass, with a little spritz of lemon for good measure.

(Draft: Steelhead Brewing Company in Eugene, OR) Basic blonde ale, lightly sweet and grainy, but not malty, and bitterness is fairly light as well. Slightly grainy nose, just not much going. Thin body, pretty watery. Pale straw color, fully clear, small white head dies away rapidly. Ugh, so boring. The waitress didn’t give me a glass of water, but she probably though this beer sufficiently met that need.

Yellow gold with a light head and spotty lacing. Light malts in the nose with lemon citrus. Lightly grassy. Honey and lemons in the flavors. Good malt backing. Very refreshing blonde. Creamy mouth feel with a slightly citrusy finish. Ok with me!

Sampled draught at Steelhead Brewing, Eugene
Pale yellow, light lacing, light carbonation. Nose if sour & malty. The flavor though is well balanced & creamy. Finishes smooth.

on tap at steelhead. very bland. limp yellow appearance, lemon aroma and finish with a hint of menthol

Tap@Steelhead. This was the lamest of their beers. Like the others, pretty well made, but this was just boring, nothing going on whatsoever, reminded me of Cascade Summer Blonde, just sweet and crappy. pale and malty.
