2.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Draft at the brewpub. It poured a yellow color with a white head. The aroma was sweet, grainy malt and some earthy hops. The flavor was grainy, earthy, with a slight hoppy finish.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle from Vas Foremost. Pours a mostly clear yellow with a sticky white head. The nose is strange, light vegetal DMS and fruity esters. Not particularly pleasant. Quite grainy as well. On taste, it is less offensive, more of the estery notes from a warm fermentation. Not particularly clean. Some crisp malt in the background and some faint and faded hop notes. Not a fan really.
3.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
This is an excellent beer out of bottle. It is one of the best I’ve found... subtle sweet enjoyable. Light on hops, I’m a hops lover now, but this would be one of my beers of choice if it was near us. Light malty sweetness, very smooth. I’ve not had another blonde/ or beer like this. Highly recommended.

12 oz bottle, pours a little cloudy yellow, slight 1 finger head, light bodied/flavored with a slight bitterness in the finish
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
12 oz. bottle, $1.69 @ Binny’s. Pale yellow, a bit hazy, under a white bubbly head. Sweet malt smell showing some corn. Taste is quite fizzy and sweet. Just reminds me that I never quite cared for this style. Getting more adjunct taste as I finish it.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Very pale golden with a fluffy, white head that leaves spots of lace. Lightly grainy aroma with a mild hint of dusty hops. Light bodied but refreshing with a touch of lemon and earthy. Finishes clean with a bit of lingering bitterness.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Hazy golden pour from bottle. Thin head. Aroma is citrus. Taste is citrus, spice and lemon peel. Clean finish. Pretty good summer beer.

Courtesy of Strykzone. This poured from the 12 oz bottle a clear gold with a moderate sized white head and light lacing. The nose is light caramel malts and floral hops. Medium body and smooth mouthfeel. Flavor is a good balance of malts and hops and the finish is lightly biter. Good session beer and quite enjoyable.
