Looking at The Clouds is our 4.8% Blonde Ale. Looking at The Clouds is dry hopped gently with Simcoe and Cascade. The soft malt base and delicate dry hop provide the perfect beer for a late summer Saturday. Looking at The Clouds smells and tastes like mandarin oranges, cantaloupe from the farmers market, and a long days work. Enjoy!

Are you sure this isn't a pale ale or some sort of light NEIPA? Huge burst of citrus and pineapple on the nose when you crack it open. Taste is along the same lines, with a bit of a solventy astringent hop bite. Where's the malt? Really really tart and fruity. Not bad, but not really an OTM, balanced blonde ale IMO.

A: The beer is rather hazy pale yellow in color - too hazy to see if there is any visible carbonation. It poured with a finger high white head that has excellent retention properties and consistently left a short head covering the surface.
S: Light aromas of orange citrus are present in the nose.
T: The taste follows the smell, but has moderately strong flavors of orange citrus along with notes of melon.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: I found this beer to be quite aromatic and flavorful compared to other beers in the style. It seemed like a hybrid of a Blonde Ale and an American Pale Ale.
Serving type: can
