Rahr's Blonde
Brewed by Rahr and Sons Brewing, Fort Worth, TX bought at Randall's Grocery Houston TX and drunk at home in Pearland, TX while Patri and I get the house ready for Pat and Colin arriving next week.
The bottle says "back in 2004 Fritz Rahr opened Rahr and sons Brewing Company in Fort Worth, Texas and bought his family's 150 years of brewing tradition with him. Beginning in 1847 with Fritz's great-great-grandfather, the Rahr name has long been associted with great beer. Now that great beer has found a home in Texas and we plan to be around as long as you keep drinking it.
Blonde lager was the first beer Rahr and Sons Brewing Company made. It is a medium bodied traditional Munich style Helles lager that features a rounded maltiness without being too heavy. And like every good Texan, it has a good head and is pleasant, but not overly sweet."
I wonder if Rahr and Sons is also the Old Can Brewery that makes Fosters in the USA. The beer has some of the same musty smell as the Fosters and is soft and very light bodied with no real flavors to titillate the taste buds.
