I got a bottle of this beer off the single shelf from the Woodman's in Onalaska, Wisconsin just outside of La Crosse. It poured a clear golden with no head and no lace. The scent had subtle grain notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with nice grain and biscuit presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a good beer.

Drop Dead Blond by Point Brewery with the attractive girl on the label. This is a 12oz. bottle poured into the Point pint glass. This is a classic yellow color, very clear, medium carbonation, with just a very thin layer of pure white foam. This is the classic beer look, clear yellow, plenty of carbonation, but where is the head?
The aroma is light grain, not much to say after that.
The taste is that of a light beer, a bit of sweet grain, very fizzy from the carbonation, crisp, not bad, but I am seeking more than what I get from an adjunct!.
The feel is light and fizzy.
This is OK, but there is nothing here to bring me back after this six pack. This tastes like a light beer, not much more to say here.

A nice light beer. Good for any occasion but not something that I would drink consistently throughout the day/night. Its a beer to have if your planning on only having 1-2 beers for the day/night.

Mostly a Bleh ale to be honest. Nothing bad, but there is nothing super notable about it. It looks okay but the feel and taste is really nothing to write home about. Again, not horrible, but not really good either IMO.

12oz bottle. Poured out a clear, golden color with a very small, white head of foam. It smelled of caramel and grains. Sweet caramel. Next to no bitterness.

Pours a very clear, very light golden color. The head is 1 finger, white, and has ok retention.
The nose is kind of a malty aroma. Fairly strong.
Taste - I'm surprised. It has a very strong, and pleasing flavor. It is very malt forward, but there's a nice somewhat citrus backside. Very pleasing
The body is lighter, but the carbonation dances on the tongue.
I wasn't expecting much from this beer, but I am very pleasantly surprised. Very well constructed, easy drinking beer.

Pours a crispy gold color with near 100% transparency and a small, frothy white cap of 1/2 finger.
Smells like a typical BMC lager, skunk and all. some faint baked bread notes hidden underneath.
The flavor profile starts with your run of the mill BMC junk, with a starchy pale grain bill, followed by a quiet bite of hop and a bready aftertaste.
Feel is crisp and smooth, perfect baseball game beer, but has a slight chalkiness due to a slight bump in hop boil character.
Drop Dead Blonde is a fair alternative to those hot summer day macro swills, but even on a fishing boat I'd be more inclined to reach for a Two Hearted or even a Michelob Amber Bock after 1 or 2 of these. I don't think I could ever do a sixer. Oh and as far as complexity or craft goes, yeah that's way out the window. I wasn't expecting much so I'm not too let down.
