Jan 6, 2009 Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy light orangeish yellow with a quickly disappearing white head. Aroma is so faint I cannot pick out anything. Slightly malty and bitter taste with a grassy tasting finish. Nice and crisp, very easy to drink.

Dec 15, 2008 First off, that woman on the bottle looks like a brunette to me, right?! Gold medal
winner eh? We will see about that! This beer is so friggin transparent it almost reflects my
image, how the hell is that possible? This beer has an odd aroma. Grassy kind of aroma. Not a
very pungent beer. Smell a subtle hint of some citrus fruit I think. This beer is just not
aromatic enough. Thin layer of head sitting on top of this beer. As I stated before, this beer
is heavily filtered. They filtered this beer too much. They are calling it blonde ale, and
the beer name fits the appearance. There is that upfront sublte fruit, but then harsh grass
taste. The beer smells like it tastes. This is the 2nd beer in one night that has had the same
smell as taste. Somewhat creamy, but not so much. There is a crisp taste to this beer that is
crisp due to the flavoring hop. I can feel it on top of my tongue. There is not that everlasting
bittering hop, but upfront hop that stays on the front of your tongue. Overall, just a simple
crisp, light, and refreshing ale. Too thin for my palate, but I can understand why lager lovers
would love this beer; probably because it is a step up from a lager, at least in my opinion.

Oct 7, 2008 On draught at the ABC brewery. Pours a clear golden yellow with airy white crown. Aroma is light with some grassy hops, yeast, and only a hint of malt. Flavour initially hits you with some hop bitterness but an earthy hop taste and almost no malt backbone. The finish is dry and bitter with more earth and grass in your mouth. Mouthfeel is thin with excessive carbonation. Nothing about this beer stands out in my mind. Not sure how it gets awards for being so unbalanced...
