Draft half pint, enjoyed at Hop and Hound. Looking at the picture of this beer on this site, I was thinking the green object looked like a green pepper of some sort. Maybe they need to add it to this beer sometime! It's the missing ingredient, I promise. Pours a crystal clear golden color, a frothy fizz head. Some straw aroma, with little else coming through. It's light. A bit of a vegetable, grassy flavor here. Rich malts, and grassy hops. Light in flavor, but a bit creamy. Not a great blonde, but also not a plain one, so I'm a little caught between here. Late reminder of a nutty grain. Not bad overall.

On tap at North Sound, pours a hazy dull blonde with a small white head. Nose is nearly non-existent, maybe some biscuity malt. Flavour is slightly more pronounced, with herbal notes and biscuity malt. Not very interesting at all and I'm not digging the herbal notes. Pretty pointless creation.

Draught at the brewery, 5.6% ABV
Hazy blond color, small head. Crisp, dry Blond Ale; the aroma is mild, the hopping is stronger in the flavor, with some quality elements, citrusy; fairly bitter, maybe even a bit too much.
Pleasant.
