Excellent light beer. Could drink a bunch of these up at the cabin.
I agree with the reviewer who can't believe it doesn't rate higher.
Good head, and, lacing on this golden brew.
Smell, some citrus, clean
Well balanced flavour, especially, for a low abv offering.
Great session beer.

Don't understand why this beer isn't rated higher. All I can think of is that this is a general reflection on the fact that light beer is permanently stigmatized by all the truly lousy light beers out there from Budweiser, Miller, Coors, etc. Antigravity is a 'lighter' beer. There is still flavour. In fact very good flavour. If you are looking for a light, refreshing beer for a hot day, or you are just in a 'light' mood, this beer is excellent.

A: Hazy apple juice in Colour. Haziness is probably because a bit of the sediments got into the bottle. No head, no lacing and apparent high carbonation.

S: Crisp apple, wet grass

T: Flavours are very light. A bit of grass, low in apple flavours, grain, slight floral hops.

M: High carbonation, thin, crips, dry

O: This is an lawn mower beer for sure. It's basicly much better then macro, but at the bottom end of Micro. IMO Flying Monkeys should relook at their business plan and where they want to go. They have made so many great product and this is way too safe for them.

Grabbed a bottle from my brother when he came this weekend for Thanksgiving.
Bottle into pint glass just about to wash the car.

A- Crystal clear yellow pour, finger width snow white, soapy head. Lacing is decent.

S- Bananas, pears, grape skins, earthy malts and a touch of cereal.

T- Apple skins, cereal grains, slight spicy yeast taste, earthy hops.

M- Light bodied, good carbonation.

I was actually surprised to see this listed as a blonde ale. This is my first time sitting down and actually tasting and appreciating it. The word "Light" I guess threw me off all this time.
