Lightly roasted barley and a touch of wheat, combined with an ample portion of hops, creates a truly crowd pleasing beer . Redhook Blonde pairs well with medium flavored foods such as fish, nachos or salad. Available year round.

bubbleflubber (1206) - Asheville, North Carolina, USA - JUN 21, 2008
Deep golden pour with a sudsy head that retains to a thin cap... leaves lightly soapy lace. Straw, earthy bitters and a touch of corn on the tongue. Doesn’t really develop into anything from there... nothing complex. Sweet wheat mid-palate, with some slightly corn bitters toward the finish. Mouthfeel is thinner, the carbonation soft... ok, i guess. Again, nothing to write home about.

Bottle at some conference reception.

Gently sweet, wheaty with restrained hops, a bit of orange. Passable but entirely forgettable.

Bottle. Brassy golden pour with a thin, off-white head with pretty good lacing. Aromas of malt and peach cobbler. Nice and smooth toasty barley flavor with mild hops. The mouthfeel isn’t altogether smooth, but the carbonation is appropriate. Really not a bad beer and probably deserves higher ratings than it’s gotten.

Actually a pretty easy drinking beer. I enjoyed this one upon my return to Alaska. Honey tasting, a bit sweet, but not cloying. Middle of the road.

phishpond417 (2089) - Madison, Wisconsin, USA - MAY 19, 2008
Semi sweet brew, nice and wheaty, soft maltiness initially, and an aroma that is a little grassy. the colour is light yellow, somewhat pale with a small thin white head.

looks, smells and tastes like a cross between an american macro and a farily decent wheat beer. nothing special, ok session beer. mild and refreshing.
