COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Dukes Draft Blonde Ale is a crisp, light and refreshing ale. An excellent warm weather midday quencher with a delicate touch of hops to balance the light maltiness.

Braudog (4607) - Hampton, USA - OCT 4, 2003
Medium golden and moderately active, with a very thin head. Thin and just lightly malted in a koelsch-style, but with little distinctiveness. Still a good well-made micro.

A great pale ale very smooth and refreshing. Malt is not over powering. Very enjoyable

Draft. Amber beer with a whitish head. Light malt aroma. Malt and light grain flavor. Medium bodied. Easy drinking. Malt and light grain lingers with light woodsiness.

savnac (1482) - Anchorage, Alaska, USA - APR 2, 2011
On tap @ Kona pub, Oahu. Typical nice, light Blonde. Very light, crisp and drinkable and a fair amount of flavor. Great warm weather beer.

shadey (1628) - Rochester, New York, USA - MAR 16, 2011
On draft at Kona location on Oahu. This is their lightest offering, or at least it was that day. Very bland in color, aroma, and flavor. It must be there to accommodate tourists that don’t appreciate craft beer. Completely lackluster.

decaturstevo (3669) - decatur, Tennessee, USA - NOV 3, 2010
Gold pour with creamy white head and lace. Sweet malt aroma with a hint of paper. Semi sweet malt flavor with a very light bitter. Thin and slightly over carbonated.

17thfloor (2301) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - AUG 25, 2010
Draft at Marina Pub. Pours a clear light golden with a small fizzy head. Smells like pee...? sour grain.... weird. Worty grainy dry lacking flavor, light esters, bit sour... Dry and gritty.

jb (1607) - Rochester, New York, USA - FEB 13, 2010
Quite pale, gold, not much there, a bit of a wheaty or grainy nose and body. Wish I had more to say than ’don’t bother’!

puzzl (3093) - New York, New York, USA - JAN 23, 2010
Tap at the brewpub. I actually thought this one was pretty decent. Light hay, crisp lettuce aroma. A bit of green olive when swirled. Very light, clean, drinkable body, with no off notes.
