I made Blind Lemon Lar's "Squeeze my Lemon" Blond Ale about 4 weeks ago for my upcoming block party (this weekend).
Rather than just use slices of lemon rind/zest as indicated, I microplaned the 2oz worth.
Whoooohooooo is it lemony, think of a beer with a lemonhead candy dropped in...
My wife really likes it so I'm sure the rest of the ladies on the block will enjoy it too. But me, not so much. If you've had Bud Light Lime this has more lemon flavor than Bud Light Lime has lime flavor probably on the order of 2x.
So how can I "de-fruit" this? It's already carbed and it has been fined with gelatin. I have a keg of Apfelwein, and a keg of BierMuncher's Sterling Gold ready to go as well, so I'm that concerened and I'm sure others on the block will most likely enjoy it...
