She's a clear pale gold beer, and I'm glad I picked this glass to show it off. The stark white head is significant, but it's not overwhelming. It also looks like it's clinging to the sides pretty well. Lacing? No, I don't think we'll get any, but it's still good-looking beer. The aroma is typical of a blonde with a heavy malt, but it definitely has a honey sweetness coated on top of it.
First sip is very good. I often find that blonde ales have a kind of bite to them that I don't particularly like. It seems like the honey is completely smoothing that out, and the resulting beer is crisp and smooth. If it was as simple as adding honey this whole time, other brewers are gonna kick themselves.
Tip-in is honey, citrus, and biscuits. Carbonation doesn't really enter into the fold until the middle starts to come with a carbonation sizzle added to a heightened honey, citrus and tropical fruits, and that biscuit malt. The finish adds a little bitterness before the honey end biscuits trail off with a bit of tartness.
Bottom Line: I really think these guys might be onto something.
3.25/5
