This is another installment of my series describing beers of Texas. I am looking at beers brewed and born here in the Lone Star State.
Brewed at HopFusion Ale works in Fort Worth, TX Feisty Blonde is a bronze golden ale. This beer has deeply aromatic orange blossom honey and the flavor of pure Mexican Vanilla and raw brown sugar to create a smooth finish. Feisty Blond is brewed with 4 grains and 2 varieties of hops. This creates a balance in the flavors. However, being unpasteurized and unfiltered to allows the natural essence of the citrus to come out of the background.
Opinion:
Feisty Blond pours slightly hazy and golden with a decent head The strong aroma of honey will be the first thing you will notice. The flavor of honey and vanilla are on the front end of this brew with a dry fruity aftertaste. People have said the vanilla is there but really have to let it set to taste it. I did not find that it hit me right away. Feisty Blonde is a decent brew and one that I really like and I will buy again.
By the Number:
ABV 8.27%

That is great name for a beer. It sounds like it should be a dessert beer. Is there such thing as a dessert beer? I’d love to try it as I like any beer that has
an orange taste.
Not sure I would call it a dessert beer, not that sweet, but it is really good.
