7.1/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 7 Overall 7
On tap at the brewpub.
Appearance: golden yellow in color with a bar pour's kind of thin white foamy head which slid off to barely leave any lace
Aroma: bready to biscuity malts, subtle rye - floral & sweet, mildly grasy hopped underneath
Flavor: meshes the prior noted aromas semi-sweet, no aftertaste
Texture: light bodied, sessionable, fairly smooth along the tongue; finishes somewhat crisp and floral
Overall: not bad for what it is but I would have liked some of the spicy component normally found with the full use of the rye actually in this beer but no worries, I believe I could still come back to this.

A pale blonde ale with a thin white head. In aroma, nice biscuit malt with grassy hops, light mineral notes, OK. In mouth, a nice biscuit malt with roasted notes, light grassy hops, light mineral notes, pleasant. On tap at brewery.
