Can from Vines BBQ in McComb MS 4-7-23
Looks fine, smells great for a blond, taste as good as a blond can, with enough character but not too much
I think it's great for the style and overall. If lighter type brews are your thing, try it!

It pours a clean pale straw yellow color with a white head that leaves quickly. The taste is of biscuit and some malt. The feel is light and watery. Overall just below average but easy to drink.

Neutral but pleasant. Blonde malts, minerally notes, vague mild floral hop notes.

Inoffensive but unambitious. Not a standout blonde or a beer I'd knowingly buy again.

C / AVERAGE

02/20/21 comped a can at work:

2-row/pale malt. Crisp and clean drinking. Has some minerality to it. Generic floral hops give it a bit more diversity of flavour, but there's no doubting it's a simple shallow brew with not a lot going on.

A bit overcarbonated.

It's drinkable, but I'd sooner drink something like Ballantine XXX or Guinness' Baltimore Blonde. A very unmemorable beer across the board.

an extremely basic blonde ale here, not much to this one, a real pale yellow color from the tap without as much head as id like to see but fine clarity. aroma is basic pale malt, a little pils crackery vibe to it, and almost no appreciable hops or yeast profile at all. the flavor is similar, with a delicate breadiness to the grain, and just a faint hop bitterness to close it out, not quite bone dry, but getting there, and slightly european, kolsch-esque, crispish, but incredibly straightforward. i found this to be a bit boring personally, but its not poorly made. in the context of the hot and humid new orleans weather, a beer like this served up ice cold sounds mighty appealing, but i thought it wasnt quite carbonated enough to be perfectly refreshing, and its a drink quick kind of thing, as it didnt taste as nice at room temperature. i didnt really love either beer i had from tin roof, but this one was plenty drinkable and probably a goo gateway to craft type beer for those not yet over the macro lagers. for me this one was just so so.

Pours a nearly clear pale straw with a scant head that has zero retention along with some but minimal side glass lace. Not impressive at all.
SMELL: Mostly bread, biscuits but this is not very prominent.
TASTE: Hint of lemon, mild malt. Not a lot going on, very mundane. Will credit that it is refreshing.
Overall it is easy drinking light flavored beer that is unimpressive .
I want a beer to show a beer head and this one totally lacks that important beer character.

Pours light gold. Foamy, short, Whitehead Fades fast.

Smells malty, Light grassy, Carmel and Light pilsner.

Tastes sweet bready malt, light grass, fading to a dry finish with a bitter, citrusy linger. Light body with fizzy medium carbonation.
