A golden pour with a thin white head. Light floral nose. Medium bodied with a decent hop bite at the finish.

As far as blondes go, I know one thing, you cannot trust them. This one, was a clear light yellow with no head (unlike most blondes I know). Tasted of sweet malt extract but the finish was remarkably light and pleasant.

Light yellow, filtered, min head. Minimal straw aroma. Very light beer with significant carbonation, slight sweetness of malts, some grainy bread, subtle citrus and hops. While watery it didn’t have any significant off or metalic flavors. Good for the drinker who wants something just bigger than water. Drunk minutes ago at brewery.

Light aroma of bready straw like malt. The flavor is the same. It pours gold. It drinks light. It finishes crisp. Not bad

Draft at the brewpub.
Pale yellow pour with a big bubbley white head.Slightly sweet aroma.Flavor is pretty good, very crisp with a nice hop bite, very drinkable.

Clean malt, light fruitiness. Refreshing crisp finish. Light in body and flavor but nothing wrong or unappealing.

On tap at NBBC. Interesting that it is classified as a pilsener. Clear gold in color with not much white head. Aroma of grain and slightly sweet malt. Flavor was clean tasting, but not great. Mostly grain and corn flavors. Not much hopping evident. By far the weakest offering at an otherwise quality brewpub.
