Aug 1, 2007 I don’t care for this style, but this beer is not bad. Aroma of hops and yeast. Pour was a clear gold with no real head. Nice heavy carbonation with tiny bubbles that pick at your cheeks. Taste was like a heavily carbonated pilsener. A little hop bite in the end, some yeast and wheat mostly, but a nice lemony taste in the middle. This is a true summer beer, though I probably wouldn’t drink it any other season.

Aug 1, 2007 Another excellent blond ale by redhook. I enjoyed the blonde ale in a summer sampler and contrasted it against this one. The tast of the rye gives this beer a better ranking but i like my red hook beers like i like my women Bubbly and Blonde and the brewery doesnt let me down.

Jul 26, 2007 Pale golden with a dusty particulate haze under a short, fast-fading cap of white. Lemony nuts and cereal grain in day-old milk, overall malty in the nose with a touch of yeast. Wheat-based flavor with a lemondrop sweet/tartness before slight bitterness in the finish. It’s OK, but I will be seeking out something else to slake my summer thirst.

Jul 22, 2007 Corn and honey aroma, moderate strength. Amber color, almost no head. Thin mouthfeel. Virtually flavorless, maybe mulberries. A bit of tinny hops on the palate, but weak. My rating is pretty generous.

Jul 21, 2007 Expected a totally different experience. This golden ale is definitely smooth and weak, especially with 6 different malts, no hops presence or aromas, but refreshing if ice cold. Dont expect too much from this....almost a mix between a kolsch and a blonde ale

Jul 14, 2007 Sampled at Cellar’s Wine & Spirits Friday evening beer tasting social. Pours a clear light golden blonde brew with a fast dissolving white head that leaves behind a white ring. Aroma of light multi-grain malt, dry citrus and some yeast. Flavor is light bodied, lots of carbonation with a dry malt flavor. Finish is clean, crisp with a slight tart rye aftertaste.

Jul 14, 2007 Slight corn nose that I was convinced belonged to a pilsner (as did Scluffman). Bland grainy body and a pale gold pour.
