Draft at the brewpub. Blond pour, like pretty much all the beers on tap that day. Sweet pale belgian malt with floral / grassy hops. Not much going on with this beer.

On tap @ RR. Clear straw color, thin white head. Light clean toasted malt aroma, mild floral hops. Very mild taste, nice toasty malts, slight citric hop touch. A nice golden.

Golden colored. Aroma is rich PNW hops, grapefruit, citrus, pretty fruity. Pale malt background. Medium to light bodied, quite drinkable with moderate bitterness. Very clean, nice for the style.

Tap @ Toronado. A light golden yellow color with a white head. Clean and crisp with light hops (but more than one would expect in this style) and very refreshing. Simple and smooth but definitely rock solid.
