Can - Bright breakfast grapefruit with a bit of candy sweetness. Clearish gold with a rich white head. Grapefruit and sweet juice with a light finish. A bit dull, but it is what it is.

Optisch leichte Perlung, Schaum bricht früh weg. In der Nase Malz, setzt im Trunk fort, leichte Süße, hinten matt. Nichts besonderes, aber durchaus trinkbar.

16 ounce can into pint glass, canned on 2/23/2018. Pours crystal clear medium golden yellow color with a 1-2 fairly dense and rocky white head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of cracker, white bread dough, and lightly toasted biscuit; with lighter notes of lemon, pear, pepper, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness. Nice aromas with good balance of pale malt and light-moderate earthy hop/fruity yeast notes; with good strength.

Light-moderate herbal, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of cracker, white bread dough, lightly toasted biscuit, lemon, pear, pepper, herbal, floral, grass, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice robustness and balance of pale malt and light-moderate earthy hop/fruity yeast flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and zero astringent hop flavors after the finish. Moderately crisp/clean finishing. Medium-high carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth and moderately bready/grainy/sticky balanced mouthfeel that is nice. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5%. Overall this is a very good American blonde ale. All around nice robustness and balance of pale malt and light-moderate earthy hop/fruity yeast flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink with the modestly bitter/drying finish. Very flavorful and not watery for the ABV. Was expected an APA when I bought it. Probably the same malt/hop bill as their lager, with ale yeast instead. A very enjoyable offering, and well made style example.
