Name – Shipyard Export Ale
Country – United States
Type – American Blonde Ale

Appearance – Pours a very clear amber color with a big frothy white head.  Leaves some lacing on the glass.

Smell – The smell is grainy and sweet.  Some hints of caramel.

Taste – Sweet and buttery.  Toffee and caramel are present.  A lot like a pub ale.  There is some graininess to it as well.

A pretty enjoyable brew.  Not a lot of ales out there like this style.  It reminds me a lot of Boddingtons as well as the Shipyard Nitro.  Sweet and smooth taste.  Not a lot else to say other than I enjoyed it and would definitely have it again especially since it is carried at local Miller’s Ale Houses now on tap.

Overall Grade – B+
