On tap at Arends Nest. Cloudy amber beer, tidy white head. Lovely fresh hop nose. Splendid fresh palate. Creamy malt supports bags of fresh columbus! Minerally fresh bitter orange and a trace of grapefruit with some tropical fruits in the background. Semi dry finish with a mildly bitter aftertaste. Absoloutely delicious! Lacks the sting of the Cascade but that’s a good thing - gorgeous hop freshness.

Draft @ de Molen. Aroma is a lovely fruity and piney hops. Flavour is a mild hop bitterness, with again the fruit and pine. Fitting malt profile. Love these blondes. (although they’re pretty close to an ipa imho)
