Hopped Blonde Tasting Notes: 4/17/14, it was almost kicked and the bright, crisp hop flavor that we loved was starting to fade.

• Appearance: Straw, very clear
• Aroma: faintly of white grape juice and pinot grigio
• Taste:
• Original/Fresh: Crisp IPA-like flavor; fresh white grape and some tropical-citrus
• fairly dry with slight malt sweetness on the finish
• 4/17/14: Fresh hop crisp and bitterness subdued. Hop character now more like blueberries.
• Possibly some diacetyl (?)
