Yellow beer, clarity is below average, white head, 1/2". Aroma was almost nothing.

Taste hit the light spots, under 20 ibu, real easy drinker, heavily carbonated. If I wanted something like this, I dunno, its just BMC with an ale yeast.

Appearance - Pours a somewhat hazy straw yellow with a finger width head, decent retention, results in a thin, semi-sticky lacing.

Smell - Malted grain, earthy, grassy hops.

Taste - Grassy hop forward, with a bit of malted grain. Subtle hints of lemon or lime. Finishes with a fair amount of balance.

Mouthfeel - Light body, decently carbonated. Goes down with a nice smoothness.

Overall - Decent blonde ale. Not big on the style, and this one drinks about for par. Drinkable, but probably wouldn't buy again.
