Mt. Hood Brewing Co.'s lightest ale. Golden sunshine blonde in color, and like our other beers, smooth and satisfying. The aroma is a pleasing blend of lightly toasted malts, honey-fruit esters, and delicate flowery hops. Highland Meadow Blonde is very mildly bittered with U.S.-grown Goldings hops; the malts are a marriage of British "floor-malted" Maris Otter malt and U.S. and British specialty malts.

Draught at the brewpub
Golden color with creamy head. It has a light grains and honey touch, but overall it’s too simple. Not bad, but boring.

Sample at the brewpub. The beer is a clear golden-orange color with a thin off-white head that diminishes quickly. Spotty lacing on the glass. Sweet fruit and floral hops in the nose. Light body with flavors of mild hops and sweet malt, plus more fruit. The finish is clean and fruity with a malt aftertaste. Average overall.

Tap at the brewpub. Light amber color with a decent off-white head. Very light hop and malt aromas. Medium body with near creamy carbonation. A taste of roasted malt with mild bitter. Halfway to an ESB.

Light bronze. Light bready nose with doughy yeast. Flavour is doughy-bready with light hoppiness and indistinct esters. Finishes clean, quick but balanced.
