COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Brewed by Amarcord Brewery in the small medieval town of Apecchio, Italy, AMA Bionda is a beer made specifically for the Italian dinner table. Designed by Brooklyn Brewmaster Garrett Oliver, AMA Bionda is a golden beer with a soft but complex floral and fruity character, born of aromatic malts, three types of hops, Italian Orange Blossom honey from Sicily, and water from springs that date to Roman times.

DruncanVeasey (6112) - NUNEATON, Blue Square Premier, Warwickshire, ENGLAND - MAY 14, 2013
Bottle at home, 05/05/13. Streaming gold with a fine slim collar. Juicy banana, clove and bubblegum esters on nose. Spritely juicy stuff with a perfumed banana, spice and hefeweizen thing happening. The Italians are devils at sneaking honey under the radar- it’s beautifully integrated here. Good brew.

gnoff (6317) - Mölndal, SWEDEN - MAY 11, 2013
355 ml bottle at Cheers Pub, Göteborg. On May 10, 2013.
Hazy honey golden color with tiny particles though I didn’t pour the full bottle. Small white head. Sweet, sugary, alcohol, some yeast scent. Sweet, citrus pith, yeast, some phenoles taste. Warming alcohol. Minerals. Spritzy "growing" mouthfeel. Medium bitterness. Bitter aftertaste.
Got the impression of a clean Belgian blonde.

Bottled 750ml. -from La Rinascente, Milano. Darker golden coloured, medium sized white head, fruity nose. Pleasant fruity, hoppy and moderate spicy taste with notes of orange in the finish. Well balanced and quite enjoyable brew.

Marko (3612) - Split, CROATIA - APR 20, 2013
Another one of Ogi’s. Poured a golden body with a huge white head. Relatively complex aroma - lovely flowery notes, malt, a smack of dust here and there, definitely spicy Belgian notes, light soap. Mild, light taste, cloves, light banana, quite lactic, creamy. Very, very light notes of peach, heck even notes of orange, lovely, almost herbal. Clean, balanced and grows on you. Yup, this one’s a success.

Hazy gold beer, tidy white head. Crisp palate, a little dry. Sharp minerals. Lemon citrus, mild, touch of herb. Trace of soap. Slightly dusty feel before the crisp finish.

Draught. Straw yellow with huge dense white head. aromas of cereal grass and lemon. Flavor is simple wheat, grass, lemon, with low sweetness and bitterness in balance. Simple light mf. Not special but easy.

rougeau13 (1592) - Texas, USA - JAN 8, 2013
Bottle. Clear golden with a thin white head and some thin lacing. Aroma of grain, honey, and light floral hops. Taste is lightly bitter with a mildly sweet graininess. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Certainly nothing special, but not too bad at all for what it is.
