Fresh draft at the north bay craft beer expo. Clear golden pour, medium white head. Right off the bat, first thing is an aroma of butter, with some muted grains in the background. Hops are grassy, and a little dull. Mouth feel, and carb are good. Finish is light, and quite muddy from the diacetyl/butter flavour. A first effort that needs more time in the tank I think. But once that’s cleared out, it should be a nice session blonde.

(Can) hazy, bright orange amber colour with a small white head; aroma of honey; balanced flavour with a long, light bitter finish

Pours a hazy blonde colour with a white cap that goes down slowly and leaves thick foamy lacing. Aromas of oranges and their juices over mild malts and hints of tropical fruits. The taste has citrus notes as well with the hops, but the finish is quite short. Seems a little unbalanced all-around, maybe a tad infected, but nothing horrible for a first brew. Lacking some cereal malt notes though.

This blonde poured a slightly cloudy, medium yellow colour with a bright white head. Minimal lacing. Scents include corn, cooked veggies and a little cigarette ash. First swig was smooth and somewhat creamy but light on flavour. Slightly bitter with flavours of hops, basement and hay. Finish had a nice malty flavour with a little hop bitterness lingering. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
