This Blonde Ale is one of our first, and most signature beers. This no-nonsense Golden Ale is always a hit, with a delicious malty honey-oat body, citrusy hops and a crisp, lightly bitter spicy finish. It’s a recipe that has, and will continue to, stand the test of time.

Can from Flavourly. Light cloudy gold with small white head, minor retention. Aroma of sweet chewy biscuit malts and a light floral and citrus hop. Taste of light toasted malts, biscuit, passionfruit, lime, bitter finish. An understated blonde but well balanced with a nice bitter kick. Enjoyed it.

Tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours amber gold, partially transparent, with fine white foam. Aroma is a little herbaceous, Body and carbonation are average. Taste is fairly bitter, with some good underlying sweetness. Bitterness is especially evident in the final.
