A float trip is the quintessential Ozark experience. A canoe, kayak, raft or tube and a pristine spring-fed Missouri stream creates a lasting memory of our wild and beautiful outdoors. Our hand-crafted blonde ale is the perfect accompaniment to your day on the river or to simply bring back float trip memories.

From the can, it pours a nice golden color with a nice thick head that slowly dissipates and leaves lacing. Light, fresh scent and light, fresh taste. Yum!

16oz Can. Pours a golden color with a fair head. Aroma of light fruit and malt sweetness. Taste of malt sweetness, grain and bit of citrus in the background. Mild bitterness and a clean finish. Light body, smooth with a laid back feel. Nice beer for a lazy summer day.

1 month old according to date on can. Poured into frozen tulip glass. Golden bronze color 1/4" white head that dissipated quickly. Smell was pretty expected for a pale ale. Flavor was lacking i found and even with only 18 IBU rating i found the hop bitter to over power the flavor. Could be better if more balanced for sure.

Pours a clear, gold color. 1/5 inch head of an off-white color. Poor retention and poor lacing. Smells of strong pale malt, cream, hint of wheat, slight yeast, and a hint of hop. Fits the style of an American Blonde Ale. Mouth feel is sharp and clean, with an average carbonation level. Tastes of pale malt, strong cream, wheat, slight hop, slight yeast, and a hint of sweet malt. Overall, weak appearance, good aroma, body, and blend, but more Cream ale than Blonde ale.
