REVIEW - Blond Witch


                                                                      
Beer - Blond Witch
Brewery - Moorhouses
Strength - 4.5%
Type - Blonde Ale

I am even surprising myself with my third beer of the week. I am not ashamed to admit that I have never been, and probably never will be, an advocate of Blonde anything... but this blonde ale was pleasantly surprising.

A lovely straw yellow colour, it could be easily mistaken for a lager... without the bubbles. It's got a very fruity smell, that doesn't quite overpower the light hoppy aroma.

With an extremely smooth texture and a staggeringly low carbonation, this ale is easy to drink, and quick to go down. It's got immediate citrus flavours, complemented by slight undertones of toffee, which is then swirled into a bitter hoppy aftertaste.

On tap it tasted fresh and smooth, and was probably the most drinkable Blonde Ale I've had to date.
