O'Hara's - Natural Blonde

The best of Irish malts combine with a single hop to make this thirst quenching blonde beer. Higher in bitterness than other blondes, this beer breaks the mould while retaining the characteristics of a natural blonde. Brewed to the European Blonde style, this beer is approaching a cross between a pilsner and a blonde with the smoothness of a blonde ale and a bite that is notably stronger and lasting.

Balanced in hop aroma, the range of malts release their own notes developed
during cold conditioning.

Aftertaste
Higher in bitterness than traditional blondes, the bite is notably stronger and lasting.

BREWER'S NOTE

A European style beer brewed with an Irish twist, this Blonde is
brewed using all Natural ingredients. The beauty of this lightly
coloured Ale is in its simplicity.

The use of a few carefully selected malts and hops come together
to produce a vibrant, refreshing low bitter Ale. This can be
enjoyed by all lovers of the light ales and lagers.

NATURAL BLONDE

Blonde ales are very pale in colour. The term "Blonde" for pale beers is
popular in Europe and South America - particularly in France and Belgium.
Blondes tend to be clear, crisp, and dry, with low-to-medium bitterness and
with a mild hop aroma and light to medium sweetness from malts.

Mild fruitiness from esters may be noted in this lighter bodied golden ale
with a profile similar to that of a pale lager. The average abv tends to be in
the range of 4% to 5%. A typical golden ale has an appearance and profile
similar to that of a pale lager.
