Redhook Blonde Ale

Brewed by Redhook Brewery
Style: Golden Ale/Blond Ale
Woodinville, Washington USA

Nice summertime brew. Almost a weak american wheat style, rather than a blonde ale. Picked up on Banana clove a little and a hazy appearance. Subtle hops, nice malt/wheat characteristic. This ale is smooth and decent

This ale poured golden yellow with a decent head. It had notes of malt and some roasted spice. The grains came throuhg on the crisp palate and the beer finished quite clean.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a clear golden color (who didn’t see this coming?) with a small white head. The faint aroma was dough, light malt, and grain. The flavor was sweet malts and some hops. Clean, crisp finish. Light bodied. Not bad for a summer day. Not as bad as others may have rated.

Sampled at Cellar’s Wine & Spirits Friday evening beer tasting social. Pours a light golden pale blonde brew with a fast dissolving and thin white head. Aroma of powdery wheat and corn with some grassy hops. Taste is light bodied, well carbonated with a wonder bread and a hint of lime zest. FInish is medium dry with a a clean aftertate.

Another cellar’s tasting. A little green tee in the nose but otherwise this tasted like I’d imagine diet milkbone dog treats might taste.

Bottle. Pours hazy golden color with small, off-white head. Nose is grainy with bread and rice aroma and very faint grassy hops. Flavor is very light, sweet maltiness along with some damp yeast flavors. Some very mild spicey hops, too. Thin body and watery mouthfeel. Mild, refreshing, but way too thin.

Draft at the Portsmouth Brewery. Pal;e yellow.well attenuated. Lawn mower beer. Very non-descript.

From bottle poured a light amber with a little head. Not much taste or aftertaste, but drinkable.
