Copper filtered with lots of carbonation and three fingers of yellowish head.

Smells of malt and children’s aspirin. The taste follows the nose.

Light body with lots of carbonation.

I got this in Chester California and I’m drinking it in Redding California October 17, 2019.

Appearance - Pours relatively clear and golden yellow in color with a white, half finger width head that fizzes away rather quickly, leaving behind a mostly barren surface with a razor thin ring of suds around the edge. Lacing is spotty, most of which slide back into the drink.

Smell - Bready aroma with hints of grassy and floral hop bitterness.

Taste - Follows the nose. Bready, lightly toasty, sweetness upfront and throughout with hints of citrus, grass and floral hop bitterness in the finish. Not much else to it.

Mouthfeel - Light-bodied with fair carbonation. Slick, easy drinker with a crisp, refreshing finish.

Overall - Pretty standard craft blonde offering. The best attribute is it's quaffable quality.

It’s the "good beer to drink, when we don’t give a d*%# what good beer we drink." That said, I’d buy more.

COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
We’ve teamed up with Santa Cruz Skateboards to create the crisp, refreshing session craft beer "Classic Dot Blonde Ale". Coming in at just 4.5% ABV, it’s a refreshing way to finish the day or keep on going.
