16oz can. No dating information found.
Mostly clear, deep amber colored body. Thin light tan head. No lacing.
Aroma is similar to a cookie, one with chocolate and peanut butter. Close to graham cracker.
Taste is coated with honey sweetness. Underneath is chocolate and a nutty component. Stays sweet in the aftertaste.
Close to a nectar mouth feel. Good base of toasted malts. Good carbonation.
The blonde ale plays host to the major flavors of honey, chocolate, and peanuts. One per session is enough. Not really a dessert beer but should be a good pairing with fruit and yogurt.

From a 16oz can purchased at the brewery
Beautiful golden/amber pour. When I hold it up to the light, I don't get a lot of clarity, I also see lots of carbonation bubbles rising in the glass. The head that forms is slightly off white, and 1 finger. The head retention is decent, but there's no lacing on the glass.
The can has been out of the fridge for a few minutes and I get a nice honey aroma. The aroma is slightly roasted, and I get a faint nut aroma as well as a faint chocolate aroma. These aromas work well together.
Taste - Honey is the flavor that starts off the parade here, and this flavor lends sweetness throughout, but not over the top. The peanut and chocolate hit on the backside. The peanut seems slightly roasted, and the chocolate leans toward milk chocolate. I also get a creamy flavor with the chocolate. Don't know if there's lactose in here - yes there is according to the can.
Very smooth feeling beer, with the hint of carbonation tickling my throat. The body is quite full.
This is a tasty treat where all the flavors work well together.
