Commercial Description:
An American style light lager that anyone can enjoy. Light taste on the palate and designed to please a person tired of the light flavor of a big commercial product beer. From the entry level craft of beer drinker to someone looking for a really refreshing beer, our Blonde lager fits the bill.

Draft Sample at brewpub. Pours gold with small white head, rimming. Nose is slightly corny with mild butter along with some grainy malts and slight fruit. Taste is light malt, slight butter with a crisp hop ending. Nice lager.

Had this beer for the first time on draft at Frederick’s Oktoberfest. The aroma is soft but nice, with some citrus, grainy, and fruit hop scents, and a bit of malt. It has a pretty clear, light gold color with a small to average foamy white head. A nice flavor, mostly sweet with some fruity tones, but also a bit sour/bitter for contrast. It is on the lower side of the carbonation spectrum; not dry, some wetness. Overall a good light beer option that has pretty good flavor.

On tap at the MBF. Poured a darker golden color than I was expecting. I expected this to be a light golden/blonde ale. The taste was more in line with what I was expecting -- it was somewhat light and smooth with a crisp finish free of any offensive hoppy aftertastes. I enjoyed it. The last time I went to B&H Restaurant I didn’t like any of their beers. I will know what to get when I got back. If only they would lower their prices...

This is a very, very nice lager. Very light straw in color, with a white head. Cold and crips like a lager should be, but not so light as to be ineffectual. Simply a nice, clean, tasty lager. Good beer!

Near clear, just a hint of straw -- lighter than any body I’ve ever seen, including low carb macros. Aroma is mild sweet, light grassy/spicy. Taste is medium sweet, some cereal, faint grassy/spicy. Very light body.
