Poured from a 16 oz can into a tulip glass.

Pours a hazy golden straw color with 2-fingers of effervescent white head. The head leaves a ton of sticky, cobweb lacing as it settles into foamy blanket resting gently atop the beer.

The aroma brings notes of peach and grapefruit juice, as well as some honeydew melon. Lots of cracker malt on the back end.

The flavor is all about the melon up front, followed by a wave of grapefruit and plenty of cracker malt.

The feel is medium-light bodied with moderate carbonation. Finishes dry and goes down smooth.

Overall, a good blonde ale that's plenty balanced and the grapefruit adds some nice acidity.
