Refrigerated 12 oz. aluminum can from RobertDale poured into a glass. Slightly hazy golden with huge white head. Aroma is floral hops, light body, medium carbonation, and little lacing. Taste is malt, some what spicey rye, yeast with clove hints, and floral hops.

12oz can into stemless wine glass. Dark golden pour. Head turns into thick surface lacing but not sticky. Aroma is moderate banana and light fruit yeast. But a nice doughy maltiness. Flavor goes lower on the sweet and banana which are more apparent in the aftertaste. But a light graininess and again a little dough inessential that I enjoy. Martin City is doing Belgians better than many similar breweries but they can still improve.

Shaker pint draft at Martin City Pizza and Taproom in Kansas City, Missouri. This was listed simply as "Belgian Blonde" on the menu board. The pour is a light haze yellow with a white head. The aroma is sweet fruit, Belgian yeast and floral spice. The taste is very much the nose with flavors of sweet fruit stripe gum, the floral spice, and especially the strong Belgian yeast character. The palate is light to medium bodied with soft natural carbonation and sweet yeasty finish. Well made, not entirely my thing.
