Offers a Sessionable Rush of Hops

 
This easy drinker is light and refreshing,

Ft. Collins, Colo., March 3, 2016 – As most of the U.S. starts to usher in springtime weather, New Belgium Brewing’s new seasonal offers the perfect easy-drinking companion. Hoppy Blonde takes a leap into the tropics with an exhilarating rush of hops at the start, that softens into a light and refreshing finish. The delicate malt base of this beer combines with vibrant notes of mango, lemon, blueberry and pine thanks to Mosaic, UK Admiral and Centennial dry-hopping. The result is a sessionable blonde ale with a head rush of hops.

“Blonde ales offer the ideal beer for every occasion and for everyone,” said Lauren Salazar, New Belgium’s specialty brand manager and blender. “Hoppy Blonde is super easy drinking, flavorful and refreshing, yet it still has a hop base that even the biggest hops fans will enjoy.”

Hoppy Blonde is a medium body beer that pours bright golden. It starts toasty sweet and has a tropical fruit aroma that quickly turns into an approachable bitterness.
