Draft at Standard Market. I think. Just a regular blonde ale color in my tumbler. A tight white head. Malty smell with a note of alcohol, and yes, I think I do catch some cedar. Taste is nice and malty, at the low end of the "Imperial" scale. Some sharp hop coming in on a different track, unless that’s the slightly piny taste of cedar aging. Frankly, what I’ve got is a big malty beer without the sugary over tone I get with most blonde ales.
