Draught. Pours pale yellow with a large, fizzy, white head, mostly lasting with good lacing. Aroma is heavy malt (straw, grain, meal), light hops (grass), heavy yeast (sweat) with notes of paper and dust. Light bodied, thin texture, lively carbonation, and a chalky finish. Average duration, light sweetness, acidity, and bitterness. Pretty good blonde ale; light and refreshing.

Tap at MBBC. Pours a clear golden color with a small white head that fell off quite quickly. Aroma is almost non existent maybe some malt if you really dig. Flavor is somewhat on the malty sweetish side with maybe some honey and some mild hops in the finish. Super lite and quite nice on a hot summer day.

Draft at the brewpub. Very clear yellow. Some citrus aromas. Grainy and macro like flavors. Just eh...

Tap @ brewpub: Pale gold with a ring white head. Mildly sweet and grainy flavors with a soapy aftertaste. Aroma is mild. I guess its a good refreshing drink if you have been walking around Manhattan Beach and need a break.

Sample at the brewpub. This beer is a clear pale yellow-gold color with a thin bone white head that burns away quickly. Spotty lacing on the glass. The aroma is mildly hoppy with a bit of grainy malt. Light-bodied with lively carbonation and a light hops character. Some sweet malt is present too. The finish is short and mildly bitter with a touch of spiced hops aftertaste. Alright for what it is.

On tap at brewery, 01/07/08. Light golden, crystal clear, thin skin of foam. Almost no aroma; what’s there is hard to ID. Typical corn flavor. Sweet off the bat, but fades quickly. No hop, no malt to speak of. Yawn.

Light gold color, small white head that lingers. Aroma and taste of light malt, bread, honey. Light and easy with no bad flavors. Decent for a blonde. Tried on tap at the brewery.
