12 ounce bottle, babbling blonde. Pours a clear golden color with a thin bubbly head, a bit of overcarbonation. A sweet glue and honey nose. The flavor is apples and dust with some light biscuit and herbal notes. Decent.

Sample at the brewpub (as "Babbling Blonde"). The beer is a clear straw color with a thin white head that dissipates to an outer ring. Spotty lacing on the glass. Grainy malt and citrus in the nose. Light, clean body with flavors of fruity hops and malt. The finish is fruity with a short malty aftertaste. Just average overall.

Bottle. Pours a light and slightly cloudy gold with a thin film of white head and aromas that are strangely reminiscent of the beauty parlor at an old-folks’ home. Skunky hops and chemical gunk that die down to leave nothing on the nose as it warms. Flavor is a mess of cloying honey buns and grass, with that odd nursing home funk to the finish. Blech... I could deal without the rest of this glass... drain?

Typical beery aroma, alittle fruity perhaps. Very light ubiquitous pale yellow american lager color. The feel of this is medium to low carbonation. Very light taste, as the description indicates. Flavors of moist hay, wet cardboard and a generally interesting flavor that is unique and non offensive. Very friendly and easy to get along with. A very good session brew. Not bitter in the least. Well behaved and friendly. Overall, just a good example of a very drinkable beer.

Sampled on draft at the brewery this beer poured a pale golden color with a small white head. The aroma was lightly tangy and yeasty. The flavor was tangy, sweet and yeasty with a dryish malt finish. I am not a big fan of Blond Ales in general but I had to give this one bonus points for being spot on for style. The most true rendition of the style I have seen from an American brewer.
