This blonde poured a hazy, golden amber colour with a creamy, off white head. Nice lacing. Scents include coffee, nuts, caramel and yeast? First swig was smooth and creamy with strong nutty flavours with additional coffee, malt and light hops. Finish is earthy with the nut flavoured coffee tastes lingering.

Second coffee blondie beer of the night (other being BtP Cosmic Latte). Clean golden-amber colour with a nice warm bubbly cap, decent lasting with some light lacing tiny spots. This one has more coffee in the nose, but less in the taste. Some lingering on the palette. Decent hops to balance a nice dryness. Fruity malt base. Gets slightly hazy at last pour. A good blonde ale with just enough hops and coffee to wake you up.

A hazed golden ale with a thin lacing white head. In aroma, sweet fruity malt with chemical peaches and buttery notes. In mouth, sweet fruity malt with light peaches and butter, blah....
