Flavor: Citrus-Fruity and sweet, light spiciness, solid flavor
Palate: Light to medium body, easily drinkable, a bit of creaminess, smooth
Overall Impression:
Nice, solid brew. Not a lot of extra information to say about this one. While I’m here, I will say the brewery was a cool place to grab a drink on a Saturday afternoon, and was particularly packed full of people enjoying 3PM beers.
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 hophead75 (2005) - Largo, Florida, USA - JUN 28, 2009
My favorite of the three I tried at Citi Field, this one was available at the Frites stand under the name Blanche de Queens. Light golden/blonde in color, slightly hazy. Medium head. Aroma of citrus, some spice, mild yeast, a touch of bubblegum. Taste is citrus, a good deal of wheat, some spice, and a nice belgian yeast character. This was a very dry beer, the yeast and citrus did give it a nice light perceived sweetness. Finishes with lingering spice, and some lingering bready/earthy yeast. Body was light, very easy drinking.
