1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20Pours hazy with little head retention. Very little smell: slightly floral, but only slightly noticeable. Taste is lightly sweet and very lightly bitter. It’s a very unassuming beer.
Medium body, with lots of carbonation. Overall, a decent drinking beer. It’s not unoffensive, but it’s not something I’d search out. It’s pretty much the mark of: this is a beer. I can drink it. It’s not Miller, et al, but it’s nothing great.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bomber from Hayduke. A clear golden pour. It has more than average carbonation floating up. An off white head is 2 or 3 fingers. A light aroma that has some grain and pale malts. This doesn’t have a lot of flavor, either. It is very drinkable and is on the sweet side. Perhaps a little lemon grass is tasted but not a lot. This was pleasant. A nice summer quaff.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Draught at the brewpub
Hazy blond color with creamy head. Light aroma, a bit papery, and grassy/earthy. Dry but smooth mouthfeel; the flavor is strange, there is some corn and some earthy touch; correct bitterness, but not much hop quality.
Easy.

This is meh. Pours a clear golden color with a thick frothy head that disappears quickly. Has an almost metallic smell to it. Almost no taste - like water. Not a lot to sink your teeth into on this beer.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Sampled on 5/12/2012. This blonde ale pours a medium orange gold color from a 22oz bottle. Small to medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is cereal, fruity and sweet. A medium bodied blond/golden ale. The malts are cereal, fruity and sweet. The hops are herbal and slightly citrusy. Decent carbonation. This beer is a blonde ale; a touch sweet, mildly hoppy and somewhat bland tasting. It is what it is, it’s not all that bad, but it’s still a blond ale. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
From a bommer. Clean and fairly sterile aroma, but hey; I just smoke a big see gar. First taste is sizzly fun, you can tell this is fairly low alky. Not much than 5% but it sure does hide the alky well. Clear lager looking thing. Quie friendly and easy going. Not sure if its because I worked so hard all day, but this stuff is scuttle but good. Yes, good sizzly fresh fun. Goes down pretty easy, not bad. Like-ability! Smooth even finsh. A good example of what a golden blonde ale or lager should be like. Forgettabout that big hoppy or impy stout thing. Sessionable.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
22oz bomber pours clear gold with thin off white head. The mild aroma offers up bits of sweet malts and faint grainy malts. The taste begins with rings of modest sort of citrus lemon like tartness and then moves timidly into an understated maltiness and slight malt graininess. The biggest note amongst these modest to mild flavors is the somewhat citrus acidic tart lemon to maybe lime note with some citrus hop bitterness picking up just a tad midway and into the finish.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
355ml bottle pours light golden color with a huge white head that settled quickly leaving some thin lacing on the glass. A light grainy aroma with some hops. Taste is light malty sweetness with a mild hoppy bitterness. This is a solid blonde ale with a light body and plenty of carbonation leaving a pleasant feeling on the palate. Easy drinking session beer and great to drink around a campfire on a hot summer day.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
From a bottle poured a golden color with a small amount of head. Light malty flavor with a quick finish.
1.2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 3/20
A fluffy white cloud head. Dark yellow. The flavor on this is not too good. A bit sour, with a tiny bit of metallic to it as well. Actually get some of that "metal" in the aroma as well. I’m hoping this bottle was tainted, if not this is truly awful.
