A thanks to the man who added that lovely photo, woodychandler, for this beer. Poured from a 16 oz. can. Has a rich golden color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is full of citrus. Taste is of citrus, lime stands out, light malts, very refreshing. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a decent beer.

Here we have a classic example of what really grinds my gears on The CANQuest (tm) - one person with the "Add" credit, CANother person with the "Photo" credit & yet NOT one rating OR review! 8={} GTFOH! CANd aside & let Bro. Woody take over!

From the CAN: "Blonde Ale brewed with Lime and Orange Zest."

I beCAN with a Crack! of the vent, followed by a slow, gentle C-Line Glug into the awaiting glass. This resulted in the formation of two-plus fingers of soapy, foamy, rocky, eggshell-white head with moderate retention. Color was an oh-so-slightly-hazy Golden-Amber (SRM = > 5, < 7). Nose was very citrusy & my first thought was lemon, but then I realized that it was softer than that. Mmm. Mouthfeel was thin-to-medium, not watery, but not much beyond it either. The taste was very citric, kind of reminiscent of 7-Up or Sprite, but also kind of sharp. Hmm. It was refreshing, but satiating at the same time. I was not feeling like having CANother one. This might fare better on a hot, humid Summer day. Finish was semi-dry, but I felt like I had been drinking a pop the whole time. Meh. YMMV.
