riversideAK (1579), Shoreline, Washington, USA Aug 28, 2007 Aroma is a nice sweet maltiness. A little but of fruit, perhaps a tangerine or an apricot is around too. Light gold color with no head. Flavor is sweet light malt, a cereal kind of flavor, and light fruit. Finishes light and crisp. A nice blonde ale really being that this style is fairly bland and boring.
Nik925 (127), California, USA Sep 2, 2008 Metallic dominance. Good malt but very little else else going on. Malt and metal, not a good combo. Sparky27 (516), Phoenix, Arizona, USA Aug 21, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours a medium gold with half a finger of white head. And drippy lacing. Nose is very light. Some malt and citrus if you try hard enough. Taste is malty, mild citrus and earthy notes. Medium mouth feel. An ok pale, but there’s better out there. DuffMan (1939), Calgary, Alberta, Canada Aug 17, 2008 Clear, bright brassy orange-golden. Lively aroma of stonefruits (peaches mostly) and clean pale malt. Crisp pale malt palate with a subtle and refreshing fruity hop finish of moderate bitterness. Very nice, and extremely sessionable! gotohelunc (359), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA Aug 12, 2008 Draft at Safeco. Rust brown color with an aroma of biscuit malt, grains, and some bitterness. Very little head. Some caramel mixed with peppery hops and a touch of sourness. Nice warm weather beer, but don’t let it get too warm...the sourness was far stronger and not so pleasant when it got warm. drjay44 (125), USA Aug 4, 2008 Smallish head, pleasant golden color, mild nose, malty flavors with a bit of hop, light mouthfeel. Nice summer type ale.
