A: Pours a bright and cloudy orange color. A small white head forms and recedes quickly. Some light lace left behind.
S: Bread and biscuit like malts. Cereal grains, light hops, and a Belgian candy like sugary sweetness in the nose.
T: Like the nose, and more malt forward flavor up front. Bready, biscuit and cereal grains. Just a touch of earthy and grassy hops and a fairly substantial candy like sweetness. That does exactly reach cloying, but still very noticeable. An interesting lavender like flavor develops as this warms as well.
M/O: A medium body with carbonation that is smooth at the same time. Though there is a bit of stickiness and a soapy character that I'm not the biggest fan of. Not particularly detrimental but that could be cleaned up a bit. Certainly easy and enjoyable to drink though.

Not the best Belgian Pale Ale/Blonde Ale I have had but is enjoyable. Simple and something that fits in with the brewery/cidery. Another beer that can appease people if they want something a little different than their ciders and is also unique to some other breweries around Houston. Give it a try, not perfect but I enjoy it.
