rudolf (1734), Buffalo, New York, USA Sep 18, 2005 Grassy, light maltiness, maybe a little butter in the nose. Awesome head, cloudy golden body. Maltier than expected w. grassy/spicy hops, hints of brown sugar & lemon. biz82 (1328), austin, Texas, USA Jul 3, 2005 Clear dark golden with a thin off white head. Sweet, very grainy aroma with some hints of cocoa. Also grainy in flavor. Some alcohol apparent. Clean. Probiere (992), Iowa, USA Jun 16, 2005 I have to say this surprised me. Poured unfiltered with a big snappy head like a Dort. Distinctive aroma of apricots, cinnamon, vanilla, and mango. Amarillo dry hops in a pale lager? I bet that’s what it is. Taste carries through, a hoppy, fruity, tang that pretty much overpowers the malt, although what malt there is is simple, clean, and sweet. This could have used a little more balance but it’s a *gasp* pale lager that I’d buy again. MaiBockAddict (1499), Good Beer Bar Deprived, New Jersey, USA May 19, 2005 Tap at the brewery. Golden, clear, fluffy white head. Clean malt hop aroma. Nice malty brew with a gentle, but noticable noble hop flavor. Crisp, clean, and well done. spkldhenlvr24 (446), Newburgh/Buffalo, New York, USA May 16, 2005 Good Blond ale. Pours a golden body with an orange tint. Huge frothy white head?? Soapy, vanilla aroma which was hard to detect. Nutty, smooth character. Sweet honey flavor. Malty finish. Lou18 (1353), West Paterson, New Jersey, USA Apr 28, 2005 Gold body, sweet fruit aroma. This is a fine blonde ale that is pleasant to drink and smooth on the palate. GrainBeltGuzzler (249), Goodhue, Minnesota, USA Apr 10, 2005 looked good to start with, but went down from there, a very sweet fruity flavor, highly carbonated, not really a beer that I would like to have again, but worth one try Suttree (2702), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Mar 6, 2005 Orange/gold, with thin white head. Very fruity aroma, with notes of citrus and cherries. Juicy palate, and a big sweet fruit flavor. as it warms faint notes of toffee emerge. Slightly viscous finish. Tasty! Thanks Lou18 for the trade!
