LSAT Freedom Trip #75. Keg at the Freeport location. Clear pale golden, large foamy off-white head, good retention. Aroma of biscuity malt, butter. The taste is grainy and biscuit malt, herbal hops. Thin bodied and bland.

On draught at Gritty’s Brewpub in Portland, 6/25/2005. Served cold in a shaker. Moderately deep, hay yellow, very clear and with plenty of bubbles rising, large bubbles that is. Creates a bubbly film along the top, not quite what I would call head, and quickly recedes to nothing after it has breathed and warmed, with no lacing. Aroma is of light pale grains, touches of light sourdough, perhaps, no fruity esters from the yeast, no hops. Flavor is intensely watery. Not exactly thin, but just mostly water in the brewing process, with only some light, dry grains. Tastes good enough for what is there, like a bit of sourdough bread dough, hints of sweaty hay and then just a fade to water, light dry barley notes lingering. Texture is lightly peppered with carbonation on a very wet, filling background of water. No off flavors, but just not a lot of flavor period. No reason to ever order this when you get their lovely cask bitter any time as well.

Blonde ale. Lightly fruity aroma is kind of vapid. Crisp but modest bitterness. A limited beer in terms of body, flavour and finish.
