Havent had too many of them. Last one I had was Heavy Seas Gold Ale. They dont seem too popular or common so I'm wondering if there any decent ones that may distribute in the northeast.

Victory Summer Love should be out soon; it is a summer seasonal. It is classified as a Blonde Ale on BA (Victory calls it a Golden Ale). It has a very pleasant and enjoyable hop presence to it so I sometimes view this beer as an APA. No matter how you classify this beer, it is definitely a great summer time beer! Cheers!
Good god I drank so much of that stuff last summer. The idea of Summer Love in cans makes my pants tight
Used to be more common 10-15 years ago. Now you usually have to turn to summer ales for that kind of beer. Widmer Citra Blonde is one of the best I've had. Berkshire Brewing Gold Spike is also a really good golden ale with german hops. Thier Steel Rail pale ale might fit the category too.
New Glarus made an excellent one last year called Hometown Blonde. Of course they don't distribute outside WI, but if they make it gain this year, it's well worth trying to get a bottle or 6.
Ommegang also released Gnomegang which they labeled a blond and was hands down the best blond ale I have yet to try.
Just wanted to say I think Deschutes River Ale will crack the top 5 for this style (American Blonde Ale, specifically.) That is all. :-)
