12 oz bottle from Sandy’s Liquors; called just Belgian Style Blonde on label. Nose of light floral hops, spicy cloves and nutmeg, and sweet caramel with a hint of banana I could pick up as I opened the cap but later seemed to disappear. Clear copper with a medium, glass-lacing off white head. Flavor is peppery, with some caramel and light bitterness.

Aroma of warm malt and floral hop. It’s a very good smell. Light coppery color with a head that frothed and left. Starts with floral hop, medium mouthfeel, substantial, but mild, carbonation. Then the whole thing fell flat. No middle. Ok, maybe I pushed the start too far. But it’s a really good start. I guess there is malt along with the hop, but the hop is so nifty. Not citrus, not resin, floral. Maybe a bit fruit, but I think floral. The finish is nicely dry. The bitter is not your APA or IPA style, more of a really nice English pale ale (not ESB).
