Can from the Packie.
Mostly clear light gold in color with a small bubbly white head. Lemony light honey and earth with faint floral hops. Firm hop bitterness offset with a lively carbonation. Nice easy drinking beer.

16 oz can into a pint glass.
Pours a hazy amber color with a finger of fluffy khaki head. The retention is real, leaving some spots of lacing as it settles into a thick blanket of foam.
The aroma is wonderfully malty, with wheat bread notes, roasted malts and a ton of honey. There's some subtle dark fruits with just a smidge of hops. Other than the honey this is pretty standard for the style.
The flavor follows the nose: Grainy malts, dark fruits and honey. Lots, and lots of honey. Finishes with the absolute mildest possible hint of hops.
The feel is on the lighter side of medium with pretty good carbonation. Crisp and drinkable.
Overall, this is a pretty good blonde ale that comes pretty much exactly as advertised. It's grainy and malty with minimal hop presence. The honey is definitely strong and takes over the flavor a bit but it's still a good beer.

Draft at brewery
Decent fizzy head good retention and lacing, slight hazy mostly clear honey blond slight rosy hue
Nose mild sweet malt, blond malt and sweet almost candy like but not quite, ah sweet honey, hint fruity
Taste fermented dried honey, fruity hop notes, wildflower honey, mild blond malt, little sweetness
Mouth is med to lighter bod, decent carb
Overall not bad for a generic beer but too much honey and not enough malt for a blond, and def not enough hops for American
