Pours a three finger cream head that faded slowly to a thin layer leaving a good lace. Cloudy amber color. Light carbonation and medium bodied. Slight hoppy nose. Flavor is hops all the way, malts are hidden; leaves a bitter aftertaste. $1.50 for a 12oz bottle from Manchester Wine and Liquors Manchester, CT. Contract brewed by Mercury Brewing.

Light haze on this. Maybe some wheat lending to the stable head. This has no aroma. Quite bland and light. Purely cereals with a light apple-y sweetness. Prickly and slightly soapy. Very week.

Bottle, thanks to Mei. Gold pour with some white head. Aroma is old cereal and corn, and a little sweetness. Flavor is the same with a little lemony citrus. It just seems like they purposely used bad ingredients.

February 2009 Beer of the Month Club

Aroma: Citrus is the overpowering scent
Appearance: Golden/orange hazy, very light white head
Flavor: Light flavor, light finish, typical not very tasty aftertaste of a Blonde
Palate: Light body, watery
Overall Impression: Typical boring blonde, I can’t get excited for this style at all...

Poured a hazed gold color with an almost white head. Malty and earthy aroma and flavor. Some floral notes.

Light malt aroma with hints of hops. Thick hazy golden color with some white foam. Moderate hops throughout with mild malt in the beginning and a sweet tang bite in the finish.

Bottle. Aroma of some spiceiness mingling with pale malt, lemon. Flavor right along with that. Not bad at all.
