MMM...Beer (385) - Las Vegas, Nevada, USA - JUN 14, 2003
Overall a good beer. Nice hint of sweetness. Plays well on the palate. I wouldn't pay the price it usually sells at, but I'd definitely take a glass from a friend who's buying.

Draft at many places in Key West. Pours a medium clear amber with a good size white head. Aroma is mostly malt. Tastes of caramel, little citrus fruit, little hop. Body is malty and finishes with a thick rich taste on the tongue. I enjoyed this one. Great Blonde ale.

NJBeerman013 (969) - Trenton, New Jersey, USA - MAR 18, 2007
Bottle - Pours a light gold, with a pure white head that disappeared almost immediately. Plenty of hops, but yet not too heavy keeping it a "light" ale. Tasty.

BREWMUSKCLES (1613) - New Jersey, USA - JUN 6, 2007
nice and flavorful for a blond ale. looks and tastes like a very good amber. nice lightly sweet caramel and quality malt flavor with a nice tingle o’ the hops (LIKE A GERMAN -ONLY A HOP FLAVOR IS ALSO PRESENT). quality hop flavor. THIS IS A REALLY GOOD HOT WEATHER BEER.

TheBeerGod909 (43) - Aurora, Illinois, USA - SEP 27, 2007
Pours with average amount of head, and a very tantalizing amber color. Taste is complex, fruity and hoppy, there’s no way you can take just one drink.

FishManLA (337) - Abita Springs, Louisiana, USA - AUG 8, 2009
Rich amber color with a small rapidly dissipating head. Grainy nose, almost like grits. A sort of tangy, grainy, malt flavor with just a hint of hops. Slight chalkiness which lingers into the finish.

RickRob925 (60) - Macclenny, Florida, USA - OCT 8, 2010
Very heavy beer, very smooth, good palate. And it is from Florida. What else could you ask for. But what makes this beer stand out is like i said. HEAVY HEAVY HEAVY.

A modest 3.3. Good overall caramel malts. Heavy. Taste makes it smooth as well and I think this is a smooth cruiser. I would enjoy it on draft. First Ive had by florida brewing company. OK overall.
