12 oz bottle. Clear yellow with a medium white head. Aroma of honey malt, orange and some light zesty hops. Taste is about the same, light sweetness with a lighter bitterness. Light body, active carbonation and a crisp finish. Not bad for the style, a bit bland and watery though.

Bottled. A golden beer with a thin lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of malt, herbs, and a bit of milk. The flavor is sweet with notes of herbs and malt, leading to a bitter finish. Boring.

Pale golden straw color. Very pale. Minimal head. Minimal retention. Spotty lacing (at best). Looks weak. Smells of wheat and floral hoppiness. Black pepper and orange peel. Weak. Tastes like carbonated water, served in a glass that once had beer in it. I will say that it is crisp and clean tasting. There is some citrus and spice flavor in here, along with a touch of sweetness. The problem is that they are buried so deep that you can hardly taste them. A little bit better (more) body than the traditional summer brew. Smooth and drinkable. I don’t like this one. I don’t find it drinkable. For me to drink this one again, my other choice(s) will have to be quite horrid.

From the bottle, pours a golden yellow with not much of a white bubbly head. Aroma is weak and that of an obligatory blonde ale - corny, malty, meh. Taste is equally middle-of-the-road, just slightly better than the average blond ale. A hint of honey in the aftertaste is its only redeeming characteristic, otherwise it would be doomed to a poor(er) rating. Not terrible, but there are many another beer I’d opt for instead.

pours golden yellow with evaporating head. Beer lacks character from the beginning and flavor when drunken. Weak on the palate with no hoppiness. Aroma is sweet with a honey touch and flavor is mostly malts.
