Good lacing white head slowly diminishes atop the deep golden, cloudy hue. Genuinely unfiltered. Well extracted tasty, grainy malts with a firm bite of herbal hops for its size. Gentle cerealic flavors pair along the floral hops. After bedondaine’s seme ta graine, I’m not as much reminded of breakfast, but this could be a nice day starter, I really dig flavorful cerealic malts with flowery hop perfumes these days. This one is fully grainy through and through, but this works well thanks to a strongly supportive medium body, fleshy and crisp. Rather mineral finish, but aptly dry. Gentle huskiness, light backing tartness. A complex little blonde frankly. Be merciful guys, this is a great example of how brewpub blondes can be holders of character.

<i>My Bottom Line:</i><br /> Fresh cereal permeates this crisp blond ale drying out right after having built a chewy, quenching body. This is a good pint to introduce your dark color-weary friends to craft beer.<br /> <br /> <i>Further Personal Perceptions:</i><br /> -A ring of foam circles the clear golden gown.<br /> -The base maltiness returns in the aftertaste, to the pleasure of all tastebuds.<br /> -A little caramel is whipped up by the omnipresent cereal.<br /> -The 2-row, wheat, and rye combine seamlessly, and rather straightforwardly.<br /> <br /> <b>On tap at the brewpub.</b>

A nice golden orange ale with a thick creamy off white head. A nice rye malt aroma with light caramel and grass. In mouth, lighter than expected with restrained malt, not much hops. Good and refreshing, but light. On tap at Bieres et Saveurs, Sept. 2, 2006.

<b>Bottle </b>341 ml<br /> <b>Appearance :</b>Crystal clear gold with bight yet small top 2+ <br /><b>Nose :</b> Aromatic, fruity, citric hop touch with good crisp pale malts<br /><b>Flavour/Palate :</b> Thin bodied, watery texture. Sweet, crisp and refreshing. Straw clean malt with citric hops on top. Decent light golden brew with some character of traditional Kolsch.

<b>Bottle &#40;341ml&#41;</b>. <i>Via trade with Viper666</i>. Clear slightly bubbly pale gold with a minimal diminishing white head even after a vigorous pour. Slightly fruity and papery grain aroma, oily and bitter - yes, there really might actually be some rye in there - corn too! The taste is like dry straw - what taste there is - maybe a hint of stale popcorn ... not much bitterness at all. Light body, a little chewy and vaguely astringent - again, the influence of the supposed rye - but lightning quick in the finish, only somewhat carbonated - at least I don’t get much aftertaste. Boring, light, the "rye" seems to hide the adjuncts reasonably well.
