I had this beer on-tap in a pint glass at the brewery.

Appearance: light golden hue with no haze and a thin head of white foam.

Smell: lightly sweet and a bit corny. It's OK.

Taste: grainy with a little sweetness. There's a dash of corniness, but it's decent for a blonde ale.

Mouthfeel: medium-light body with a good carbonation and creaminess. It's actually not half bad.

Overall: maybe not the best blonde in the world, but it's relatively drinkable.

Served in straight pint glass. Poured a bright, clean, clear yellow color with just a thin cap of white head that had no retention or lacing.

The aroma was a very good grain scent with just the right amount of gentle hopping to provide some contrast. The flavors were the same, good grains, crisp, even hops, nice balance.

The body was about as expected for the style, clean and dry, with a nice amount of bubbly carbonation. Drinkability was very good, my pint went down quickly and I would have had another except we moved on to another bar. Overall, a fine example of a clean, easy drinking beer. Grab a growler for your next day of yard work or cook-out.
