We love hops, so why not pack our unfiltered blonde ale with tons of Amarillo hops? You're welcome!

Appearance is deep golden orange and silky smooth. Excellent head and lacing. Smells like peaches, apricots, mango, clementines, orange juice, honey blossom, tea leaves. Floral notes just as prominent as the fruit and citrus. Light malt. Taste is delicate with a mixture of slight breadiness and hop bitterness yet smooth from its luscious body. Overall a wonderful blonde ale from a strong Gulf Coast brewery.

12 oz can poured into a nonic pint glass. Just barely off-white head with medium-sized bubbles that stuck around. Dark golden body with just enough haze.
Hop-dominated aroma, high on the leafy with some herbal or floral underneath. Some citrus in there also. Maybe just a little bready malt aroma in the background.
Tastes as it smells, perhaps with an additional resiny aspect I didn't pick up. Decently, although not excellently balanced. Awesome mouthfeel, the bubbles make for a very creamy ride, considering it is a paler ale. A slight lingering bitterness.
Overall a great beer, on par with anything coming out of the West Coast.

Pours cloudy, bright yellow in color with one inch head. Smells amazing--big fresh mango and juicy hops--comparable to Tree House Julius. Taste is more mellow but super enjoyable. Light mango, orange, and dry hops. Super tasty and very sessionable. One of the best blonde ales I have ever had. Worth seeking out.

look: 3.5 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.25
Appearance: Hazy gold, bright white cap with good lacing.

Aroma: Fresh, clean, bright hop with intriguing layers of spice on floral, Some sweet malt peaking out.

Taste: Invitingly refreshing combination of light to medium malt as a center line with hops racing above and below yet all staying together. Really good effort here.

Texture: Medium that doesn't short change those who prefer full.

Overall: I suppose the brewers reference to dirty blonde is descriptive of the unfiltered haze of the brew, though it could refer to the woman in the graphics who looks like a divorce lawyer's repeat client, either way it fits. 5% means you can have more than one if you're driving, and the complex flavor makes a second almost a given.
