500ml bottle poured into pint glass 1/4/13
A slightly hazy darker shade of yellow with plenty of tiny bubbles throughout that feed a tight thick film not quite a pinky deep, retains well and leaves a couple partial rings
S lots of soft caramels, herbal and slightly floral hops, some cereal and cream corn perhaps
T hops have a little spice to them and some fruity notes with some sweet malt, mimics the nose fairly well other then that
M a little slick after the fact with more body then one would expect from a small beer, good carbonation with the pin-prick bubbles creaming it up nicely, spicy finish lingers
O I didn't mind this one and its making me think of Spring, not a bad version of the style
I'm trying to rate to style and if I was leaning more towards personal preference today it would score lower because I'd get board. That being said they made what they were attempting to make fairly well.

A- This Blonde pours a yeasty, hazy golden color with tinges of orange, copper and rusty tones around the edges....the head isn't very impressive, being only about a half inch in thickness and fizzling out very quickly into wisps swirling around the top of the liquid. Carbonation looks to be modest and lacing is also rather dumbed down...with a mainly oily looking film sticking to the side of the glass....underwhelming at best.
S- Huge bread and yeast dominate the nostrils, with sweet caramel malts following suit, providing a buttery sweetbread aroma. Less prominent smells include some mild citrus, toffee, and the finish is of a very mild hop bitterness that retains some cleanliness and freshness.
T- Slightly citrusy, loads of yeast and bread and overall clean....not much else to say here! It is pleasant on the palate and the finish is clean with some mild hop cone bitterness....a nicely flavored Blonde Ale!
M/O- Medium bodied and super smooth carbonation make this an easy going, enjoyable beer to consume anytime.....the creamy nature of the yeast reminds me of freshly baked buns/dessert bread with a drizzle of melted butter! I would buy this one again! Cheers!

Poured from a 16 oz bottle into a pint glass at the World of Beer in Columbia, SC. The appearance is a clear, pale golden color with a medium sized white head. The aroma is hops, some grass or grain and honey. The taste is mild and very pleasant.

Nice blond ale with mildly dry finish. Golden color with fine carbonation, and a skin of a head. Aroma is malt and light citrus, taste is malt, saltines, with a nice touch of hops. A good British beer....

I couldn't finish it. It's made with barley malts and may be the cause of the undesirable taste.
