Deep blond color, creamy head. Light malt aroma, very light spicy yeast. Smooth mouthfeel, with some malt flavor, mild spicy yeast presence, and relatively strong bitterness.
Easy.

jercraigs (6477) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - JUL 17, 2010
2010-07-01. Dark yellow body with a small white head. First impression is not good. Rough grainy grassy character, modest bitterness. Aroma is similar, rough grainy grass, wheat, hints of oxidation? Off/oxidized or just not good, I don’t know. Average to thin bodied palate. Not for me. On tap at Diamond Knot, Mukilteo

Nice golden ale. Aroma is light and sweet with the faintest touch of citrus. Pours gold with a thin head. Light pale malt sweetness initially with a really nice citrus/floral hoppy finish. A hoppy golden ale. Enjoyable.

Skyview (5023) - Papoose Jct, Minnesota, USA - SEP 2, 2008
On draught at the brewpub in Mukilteo, Washington. Pours a clear golden pale blonde brew with a fast dissolving white head that dissipates to a thin white ring and some spotty lacing. Aroma of golden grain malt, some wheat bread, a touch of corn meal and citrus zest. Taste is light bodied, some carbonation and with a more grainy malt flavor compared to the summer blonde ale. Finish is light, crisp with a nice balance of malt and citrus hop aftertaste flavors.
