Slightly opaque pale yellow color. Mild sweet and fruity aroma. Easy drinking, light taste. A little sweetness to the backbone with a crisp, mildly bitter finish. Slight citrusy aftertaste.

7oz pour at the facility pours a lightly hazy yellow with some sudsy white head. Nose is blond ale, floral, sweet, fruity. Big breakfast cereal thing happening. Flavor is a bit more simple and a touch underwhelming. Honey and melon and Mexican soda. Sweet finish.

Month old bottle A: Poured a tall white head atop a lightly hazed pale gold body. Head retained well through a loose froth and left patchy lace. S: Light aroma of lemon, peppery spice and wheat crackers. T: Much like the nose, with lemon pith and zest. Wheaty, malt notes and light spicy pepper round out the sip. M: Light and smooth textured with soft carbonation and tart finish. O: Leans a bit too wheaty but good overall.

Harpoon Summer Style NE blonde ale 5% No idea what a hazy blonde ale is. On cracking open it had big bubbles of off-white foam that were gone in a blink. The aroma gave me a fruity banana smell. Medium to full bodied with a raspy carbonation. The taste is rough earthy fruitiness. Pretty average and doesn’t scream Summer to me. 500¥ or so from Nagano Trading.

Free tick at family gathering. Gold. Grassy and floral and smooth. Very easy drinking but not much complexity.

12 oz. can from Total Wine. Pours an opaque gold color with a white head and good retention. Light lacing. Soft tropical fruit aroma. The flavors are hard to define. There's some bread and light mixed fruit (pineapple and grapefruit?) and background hops, but they all blend together too much. Nothing bad, but this beer doesn't know what it wants to be. Medium-light body. Semi-slick mouthfeel. Below average carbonation.

Pours hazy with a thin white head. Aroma of citrus. Taste has grassy notes, floral. Palate has mild hoppy notes, tropical fruits. Good.
