Blonde Ale 3.9 º

Half Moon Brewery

This bright Blonde Ale showcases a quintessential American craft profile with a cask-conditioned elegance. The sensory experience begins with a luminous golden hue and a soft, creamy head. Aromas of grainy, bread-like malts provide a clean foundation for a refreshing burst of grapefruit zest. On the palate, initial soft malt flavors of biscuit and light honey transition into a vibrant citrus-forward hop character. The cask service tempers the carbonation, enhancing a smooth, medium-light body that highlights the beer's approachability. A well-defined hoppy finish offers a crisp bitterness that lingers briefly, balancing the subtle sweetness for a clean, refreshing pint.

Appearance. Light yellow to deep gold (approx. 4 SRM); brilliant clarity; low white head with fair retention and light lacing, characteristic of cask service.

Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring grainy-sweet malt and a prominent citrusy hop character reminiscent of fresh grapefruit; low fruity esters and a very clean fermentation profile.

Taste. Soft initial maltiness with notes of white bread and a hint of honey; moderate hop flavor driven by grapefruit citrus; medium bitterness that is firm but balanced, leading to a medium-dry and refreshingly hoppy finish.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a notably smooth, creamy texture from cask conditioning; low to moderate-low carbonation; no alcohol warmth or astringency.
