Blonde du Quai comes from my home province, New Brunswick, where it is brewed by Shiretown, in Charlo. It is sold in hand numbered 500mL bottles and contains 5.5% alcohol. This is a cloudy, golden ale, topped with a very thin layer of white head.
The aroma has considerable blueberry volume, as well as some slight yeastiness--this gives it a nose not unlike blueberry pie. It has a very thin mouthfeel and a mild, fruity flavour. There is very little aftertaste to speak of.
Blonde du Quai is an interesting and easy drinking little beer with a decent flavour. I'd have liked a bit more intesity in the flavour--this stuff was too mild tasting for me to really get behind.
Rating: 6.5 out of 10.
