Pours a med fizzy frothy carb with med-lower retention, a little lacing brilliantly clear light gold color

Nose brings light Belgian blonde malt, a little sweet malty almost candy character, fair fruity esters, little citrus and sweetened tree fruit, a touch of floral hops

Taste brings nice Belgian malts up front, blonde malts with a little sweetness, floral slight herbal hops with med-light bitterness, hops getting a touch spicy later, fair fruity esters with a little citrus and tree fruit, drier finish with fair lingering spicy hops and sweet Belgian malts, little vanilla orange icing

Mouth is med bod, not syrupy at all, gets a touch astringent though, with med foamy carb

Overall solid Belgian blonde, gets a little hoppy overall for the style, but quite enjoyable

Draft at Bluejacket. Light golden, small silky head, lots of lacing. Big grainy aroma and yeast. Yeast moves to the front in the taste, smooth silky, Belgian-y. Dry, nice feel.

Draft at the source.

Clear, golden yellow body with a bone white head. Aromas of yeast, light spice, lemons, hops. Easy drinking, a hint of spice, tangy hop character. Body is thin, even watery. Middle of the road.
