A light, refreshing blonde ale with mix of kiwi fruit, fresh strawberries, and citrus flavors. Fermented and conditioned cold with a Kolsch yeast and dry-hopped with Styrian Dragon hops.

Reviewed from notes.
Can to becher glass.
Appearance: golden color with a good transparency about it. Two and a half fingers of white foamy head dissipated nicely to leave some light lace.
Aroma: mixed berry-ish to citrusy and slightly citrusy fruits seem to be blended in their hops and a clean maltiness underneath
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a good bittersweet hoppy to malty blend; finishes citrusy and malty
Texture: medium bodied, sessionable, smooth along the tongue
Overall: pretty good blonde ale worthy of coming back to.

Pours bright gold into a shaker. Bright white head with medium retention recedes to skim surface. Caramel and hay aromas. Crisp with melon and banana upfront turning to sour berries in the dry, lasting finish.
