Sampled at GCBF '10, pours light golden with a white head. Aorma of pale malts and very light hops. Flavour of light hops, quite citrusy / lemony and caramel malt. Disappointing.

Hazy orange color; small head. Light, sweetish malt aroma, caramel, light vegetables and band-aid. Light malt flavor, incredibly light body for this gravity, very light cabbage and sourness. Failure.

Hazy golden color; medium sized head, not persistent. The aroma is earthy, light manure, very light sugar and malt. Lean body, common malt flavor, sweetish, with a feeling of straws; common bitterness. Too much is missing here: first of all, hop character, resins, fruitness, then malt backbone. Disappointing, this is an ordinary Blond Ale.

On tap at the Alibi Room, pours hazy golden with a white head. Aroma of grains, citrus and mild hops. Flavour of muted hops, pale malts, grain and some herbal notes. Certainly not an IIPA and not too impressive even as a strong pale ale.
