Crisp golden coloured body with a thinnish white head. Aroma of metal, rice, lemon zest, alcohol and a hint of nice crisp hops. Light-bodied; Crisp and slightly sharp metallic and citrus flavours with a nice light grain and zest flavour finishing with a herbal note. Aftertaste has a mild citrus flavour, followed by herbs and grass, but all very smooth and still flavourful. Overall, a good beer to try for sure and a nice option for the style! I sampled this 50 cL can purchased from Whole Foods in Tyson’s Corner (Falls Church), Virginia on 10-June-2014 sampled on the train to New York on 17-July-2014!

Can: Mild dandelion bouquet. Shimmering amber, thin head. Ash, with a touch of DMS. Finishes with wormwood and walnut. Thin, but flavorful and sessionable. Surprising complexity and interesting nuances.

16 oz can purchased at Pinocchio’s Beer Garden in Media, Pennsylvania. The pour is a hazed golden orange with a small white head. Nice lacing on the glass as the beer falls. The aroma is fruity sweet malt, along with a nice grain and a bit of grass. The taste is the nose, with a blend of sweet malt, cracker grain, and the earth and grass towards the back. The palate is light to medium bodied, soft active carbonation and a dry sweet finish.

Total Wine, Fairfax 4-pak: Pours golden color with a white head. Aroma is citrus hops, some bready malts. Although this is pretty light, the body is kind of on the heavier side of blonde ales. Hoppy bitterness is prevalent throughout. Nice, but simple hoppy blonde.

Can: Pours very cloudy citrus yellow with a frothy off-white head..leaves a curtain of lace all the way through. Aroma is sweet malt, bread. Taste is grassy hops, pepper. Not bad, more like an APA....

Big pounder can. Nice beery aroma. Big rocky head on a pale looking thing that has just barely a haze. No co2 on the tongue is my first impression. rather hoppy for a blond, I would say this is more like a mild apa. I must say, it does have a very nice appearance in the glass. Yes, has quite a peircing bitter hop effect. Especially on the finish. Not as behaved as a golden or blond beer should be, rather up yer nose for a lager lover.

16oz can courtesy of the Brink Lounge. Hazy, unfiltered orange-yellow-tan. Thinnish white/off-white head. Smooth mellow aroma, clean malt and some mild orange sourdough hops. The lack of filtration works well with this one, giving it some nice, creamy yeast tones that smooth out it already mellow, medium body. A pretty respectable offering, way above par for the style. My only gripe is that this is sold in what I consider a premium price point, while it is a standard ingredient beer. All that aside, this is still well crafted, as has a lot of character.
