Blonde the Beachcomber
Beachcrest Brewing Company

cool they are canning some beers, but this is easily the weakest of their beers i had while we were out on the coast, its honestly not even all that easy drinking, approaching medium bodied for the style, not as clean as the rest of them in terms of fermentation, and it frankly tastes more malty than it needs too, a touch sweet at the end as well. its not a bad beer, its plain but not that bland, tastes fresh and all, but also doesnt really hit for the beachside ripper, which is what i bought it for. best when ice cold, when its most minimal, but as it warms it gets grainy, slightly toasted, and a little unclean or even cheap tasting, its just not as crisp and easy going as i want the style to be, especially with the name. on the other hand though, this is the northwest, and until the recent heatwave even in the summer its often in the 60s on the beach, this isnt miami, so i guess a little structure and substance isnt the worst thing in the world, but overall this just doesnt seem as well made to me as all the rest of the beers i had when i visited the brewey. awesome taproom by the way, well worth your time when you are out that way, but just skip over this lackluster blondish ale...
