Grolsch Blond from Grolsche Bierbrouwerij N.V.
Rating: D+
Pours a dark yellow... a meager head forms, with no lacing, and few bubbles tracing up the glass.
Smells sweet, and I detect some corn characteristics. No hint of skunking, despite the clear bottle. I taste the same corn... probably used as an adjunct? Sweet, obviously low in alcohol... Leaves an aftertaste that isn't pleasant, but not quite unpleasant either. Could have benefited some more carbonation, I think, to make up for the lack of character otherwise. Not a bad beer, but I won't be seeking it out - one is enough.
Serving type: bottle
