I enjoyed this beer on a couple of occasions at the downtown location. The servers on both days told me this was a "Belgian Blonde" and the 2nd server gave me the abv.
Poured from the tap into the Ale House Imperial pint glass.
Appearance: Pours a slightly cloudy light orange color with a small head that stuck around for awhile.
Smell: Fruity with a hint of sweet oranges.
Taste: Just as the smell suggests, fruity orange taste but balanced well with the maltiness.
Mouthfeel: Super smooth and medium-bodied. Not much carbonation. Best part of this beer.
Drinkability: Very tasty brew. Would definitely seek out again.

16 oz nonic pour from the tap at the Milwaukee Ale House in Grafton. 6.5% ABV. "Belgian Blonde" ...could be a Strong Pale Ale...
A - Lightly hazy pale yellow straw color with a good long-lasting white head. It was poured poorly (the server dumped out lots of head to make room for more beer) but would have been a good two-finger size. Lacing on the glass but not extreme.
S - Strong yeasty aroma upfront with a hearty helping of banana and a small stick of bubble gum. Bready notes drizzled with honey. Overall a sweet nose.
T - Strong Belgian yeast with banana esters and a rich breadiness with a touch of clove spiciness. Light alcohol to the finish.
M - Medium-bodied and sweet with a bit of a spicy finish to it.
D - It's not bad but it's not special by any means. It's drinkable but I wouldn't lump it into their "Sessions" category of beers.
