Today, Seattle’s Elysian Brewing is launching Lemon Daydream, a limited edition lemon blonde ale that puts a bold twist on the popular fruit beer category. Available now across the West Coast, Pacific Northwest and at Elysian Brewing’s Seattle brewpubs, Lemon Daydream delivers crisp, citrusy flavors, offering an innovative alternative to the classic summer shandy or radler—and a more flavorful choice for those who enjoy a citrus twist in their lagers and light ales. It’s the perfect choice for consumers seeking a bright, refreshing experience.
“For our seasonal Summer release, we set out to create an easy-drinking ale that captures the essence of summer,” says Brian Wold, Innovation Brewer at Elysian Brewing. “The consumer demand for ales is growing, so we wanted to move beyond the typical summer lager with a sessionable brew that is refreshing, well-balanced and offers a burst of citrus character.”
Lemon Daydream Lemon Blonde Ale is a bright, crisp brew with a 4.9% ABV. Lightly sweet and mildly tart, it features the bright, bold flavor of Meyer lemons complemented by a hint of honey. On the nose, strong notes of citrus, lemon with lime, floral and honey take the forefront. Brewed with zesty Idaho 7 hops, known for their tangerine notes, this ale offers a light body with a smooth, mouthwatering finish, delivering an experience reminiscent of drinking a chilled glass of fresh lemonade on a hot summer day.
Lemon Daydream Lemon Blonde Ale is available for the Summer at select retailers in California, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and Washington in 12oz cans and bottles, as well as on draft at bars and restaurants in each market. Consumers in Seattle can find Lemon Daydream Lemon Blonde Ale on tap at the Elysian Brewing taprooms in Capitol Hill and Elysian Fields.
