Boulder Beer Sweaty Betty Blonde

Brewed by Boulder Beer Company
Style: Wheat Ale
Boulder, Colorado USA

Bottled. Poured a clear bright golden with just a little white sticking around for head. The aroma was a sweet mess of vegetal notes, honey, and white peppery spices.. was more enjoyable as it warmed a little, but still not very good. Flavor was a touch better with more cohesion between the prickly wheat notes, peppery spices, and some bready sweetness. Light-bodied and sharp at times on the palate (albeit partially from wheat tartness that was supposed to be there). Didn’t do it for me.

12 oz bottle. Poured a clear light golden color. Lots of bubbles on the side of the glass with a layer of debris at the bottom. Head was white and reduced to a thin film. No lace was left behind. Aroma was of clove, melon, and pineapple. Slightly sweet on the tongue. Overall, the flavors were not as prominent as the aromas. Tasted fruity with only a bit of pineapple and light clove. There was also some doughy malt. These flavors were mostly up front and dissipated toward the end, lamely ending like a boring American wheat.

A traditional blonde ale light in body and heavy in head. A good wheat beer that is not popular, yet. A light hop aroma to compliment the good taste.

On draught at the Washington Brewers Festival. Aroma is peppery, phenolic, with some grainy wheat notes to it. Beer is cloudy with a white head; low retention. Flavor is bready, wheat malt forward, yeasty, slightly sour, with some vegetal notes. Light bodied, with a solid carb bite and dry finish. Was definitely confused, as this was just given to me as a standard ’blonde’ at the festival. Sat there with another beer judge just scratching our heads; glad to know this is not a true bolde, original score was 2.4...

Sweet wheat grain aroma with yeasty banana esters, cloudy appearance, somewhat diminished chalky wheat taste,touch of banana, touch of lemony sourness up front and wheat tang in finish,very drinkable

6.12.07 bottle. Decent wheat in the American style. Little bit of citrus and banana, nice head and some sediment to cloud it up. Average.

Dark Yellow Color with White Ring. Dry Wheat, Coriander, Citrus and Bittering Nose. Medium Mouthfeel..Nice Citrus and Dry Spice Notes..Creamy Feel...Light Banana and Spices..Lightly Dry Finish. Very Nice Summer Beer.

Pours cloudy pale yellow with medium white to off-white head. Nose is banana ester, wheat malt, straw, coriander. Tastes of banana and cloves, wheat grain, and yeast. Clean, non bitter finish. Not an american wheat - a well done hefeweizen.
