Fiddlers Green Blonde Ale

Brewed by Matt Brewing Company
Style: Golden Ale/Blond Ale
Utica, New York USA

(12oz bottle) Large off-white head atop hazy apple juice body. Aroma is medium sweet, peach, light bread/grain, orange/lemon. Taste is medium sweet, peach, lemon/orange, light bread. Light-medium body, light creaminess.

Bottled. Poured slightly hazy medium golden with a short, fizzy cap of white head.. some sediment floating around in there. The aroma picked up lemon zest, honey, and corn with light floral accents.. decent, but nothing really good going on. The flavor was about the same with more fruit going on.. lemon, honey, and light fruits at the core with dry, scratchy grass bitterness.. touch of sour light fruit skins on the finish. Light-bodied with higher carbonation on the palate.. just felt OK.. not a lotta good going on overall.

12oz bottle from Total Wine (Tampa, FL). Pours a hazy dark golden color with one finger white, creamy head that settles rapidly. Little lacing but lively carbonation. Aroma is sweet malt, honey, fresh hay, hints of ripe fruit. Flavor is similar with the malty sweetness, caramel and honey notes coming through predominately. Light to medium-bodied with a light, sweet finish.

Bottle... Mostly clear, light golden ale with a small, frothy, white head. Decent retention. Loads of biscuit malt in the aroma. Medium-bodied with modest carbonation. Balanced, but boring. A little metallic bitterness. Inoffensive. Crisp finish.
