Alexander Blonde
3.75 3.5 3.75 3.75 3.75

Nearly clear with a solid gold color. Modest head which initially leaves some streaks and spots on the glass.

Grainy smell with a touch of wet iron. No notable hop.

This is a more grainy than malty beer. The hop shows up softly. Full bodied base with a higher carbonation level. The finish is decently balanced for a blonde. This would make a good Helles.

 

a better than its ratings blonde ale, not sure why it is listed here as a belgian pale ale, thats not what it is. bright golden beer here, yellow golden, bright as can be, carbonated like a soda and giving rise to a full inch of white head. it smells simple, a touch sweet like honey and pale barley malt, and interestingly an ale yeast that doesnt appear to be inconsequential, light as it is, its unexpectedly present, which is cool. the beer tastes fresh and simple, definitely a light honey character to it, but its not sweet to me at all. a bitter earthy plant element too, maybe the hops, but its real floral to me, like clover or meadow flowers or something. basic on the grain side, and the yeast, which has a light doughy and biscuity property, very pleasant and im glad its there. the carbonation and light body make this really refreshing and drinkable, nice after a day of yard work. higher quality than anticipated, flavorful for a basic blonde ale, and overall quite impressive for what it is. a fun one to drink, i have not hand many beers from israel!

 

 

 

 

 

Alexander Blond is an Israeli, local, beer. It's brewed by the Alexander Brewery in Emek Hefer and is attainable in very few places around the country, but hey - If you're in Israel and like the style, try it.

Look:
Poured into a glass it's a light gold, with a bit of cloud and a small head which sticks around for a few minutes.

Smell:
Well, not it's best characteristic. It smells like any other blonde, but a bit less.

Taste:
Again, not the best blonde around, but you can feel the fact that it's local and brewed in small portions. You feel the high quality material, but it isn't the best out there

Feel:
Unlike most blondes, this one is light and fun to drink in quantity. Most Belgian style beers tire you after a pint or so, this one is much more drinkable
