Aroma is more hoppy than malty, not strong but still quite inviting, with a bit of an alcohol nip to it. Color is a clear golden, and the head does not persist for long. Flavor is very smooth, crisp, hoppy but only slightly bitter and just a hint of fruity taste. It leaves my mouth feeling satisfied and tingly, ready for another swig.

pour is a hazy yellow with no head. smell is of wheat, hay, and a hint of floral. taste is crisp, wheaty, sweet, and just a little bit bitter. overall not that bad, I’m pleasantly surprised, i normally don’t care for the blonde’s and nor the beers that are made for specific stores (Fred Meyer).

the best way to describe this beer is bland but drinkable. there is only a mild assortment of malts and little hops. a very mild array of fruity. the carbonation, covers the rest

Very drinkable blonde ale. The palate is not long, but there is a nice malty flavor and some notes of fresh bread (although very small) in the finish.

Courtesy of Nick76. Has a lightly sweet malt aroma with a hint of floral hops. The body is lager golden and holds a diminishing white head that starts coin thin. Light bodied, lightly crisp with just of hop bitter ness and honey sweet malt in the finish. Fairly basic, but nothing glaringly off about it and you could certainly session a few on a warm day.

Looks better than it smells and tastes: should substitute model for American pale ale photo ops. Smelled vermented and tasted grainy, but its the gift that counts.

Pours a light golden tone, with a thin white head. Nice carbonation with a pleasant aroma. Taste of mild fruit, some spice and ends with a malty clean finish. Probably would not buy again.

Savannah, Ga. - Kroger Supermarket - 12 oz bottle - light copper pour, light white head. Fresh lake water aroma, hint of spices. Flavor has a bit of a subtle citrus undercurrent, some spicy notes and a bit of metal on the back end which diminishes the mouthfeel. Overall, decent.
