Blonde Ale·United Kingdom·4.5% ABV·One of 88 Blonde Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Blonde's citrusy and hoppy character. A hit of lively citrus opens and a fruity finish closes this blonde ale. It is made from the palest English ale malt with Slovenian Styrian and New Zealand Motueka hops, and the brewery pitches it as a thoroughbred that gallops across the taste buds towards a finishing straight. 4.5%, with cask pours in pubs as late as August 2026.
