Nice smooth blonde ale, light malty aroma, some grass/meadow. Hazy golden with small white head. Taste is more grain/bread, no hops that stand out. Good summer beer.

underrated for sure, this is a nice, full flavored blonde type that has substantially more character than most of its peers, especially locally made ones, where there seems to be a relative absence of flavor, at least to this extent. lots to like about this one, and it might be my favorite of their beers so far. its clearish and golden in the glass, light enough looking, with a decent white head but not much retention. smells grainy for what it is, earthy not sweet though, and actually has a little yeast character, which is almost unheard of in the style, i dig it! its all real balanced in the taste, with some amount of malt body and a very light bittering hop. i get things like starch, bread crusts, even clay, its very nuanced as they go, and the freshness on draft is obvious. its clean and refreshing in feel, not watery but quite light, and with just a touch of a floral hop thing setting in late. you dont hear a whole lot about these guys, but their beers always seem to hit the mark. i could crush these, and its one of the better light ones i have found in the state so far! nice for summer.

Very smooth blonde, light but not foamy, with the feel of a vienna lager

On tap at the brewery 8/7/10.

Pours a straw color, a bit hazy, with a very light foam topping.

Aroma is a subtle sweet grainy/wheatish smell with no bitter or harshness detected.

For me the flavor is just middle of the road, dry, malt flavor with a sharp wheat like bitterness.

The overall mouth feel is nice during the drinking but the dryness leaves you a bit parched.

It is easy to drink if you have some food to go with it or possibly some water.

I didn't ask what f.g. was but my guess would be very low.

Pours light golden yellow Not a very strong smell. Zero head

honey sweat carbonated bud light is what you got here. It taste really good I think. I know I know some of you are turned off by my first line of the taste but it is really good. I suggest you try it. I think I will like this even more this summer on hot days on the patio.

There is a slight bite at the end that wraps this beer around your toung

Enjoy
