Dec 7, 2005 This gold ale pours a medium gold blond color from a 12 oz bottle. Large sized white foamy head. Aroma is fruity, caramel and sweet. A medium bodied gold ale. Malts are fruity and sweet, caramel and toffee. Hops are slightly floral and citrusy. Some very lively carbonation in this beer. Drinkable, but nothing special. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and dry. Aftertaste is slightly sweet

Sep 20, 2009 (bottle - 12 oz) Lightly hazy orange pour with a thick tan head. Aroma is light and biscuity with some light hints of hops and some sweet malts. Flavor is dry and grassy at the beginning with a very mild and sweet middle. Crisp and lightly bitter on the finish.

Nov 8, 2005 A drinkable enough golden/yellow ale, a light, sweet malt aroma with some earthy hop scents. I wouldn’t have guessed that Abita used Cascade and Centennial hops in the brew, all hop presence hardly noticeable in the mild, sweet drink. Still, I’ll have no way putting away this golden ale, and be happy knowing that I’m contributing some relief money to the great city of New Orleans while doing so. <font size=-4><a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Places/ShowPlace.asp?

Dec 18, 2005 12oz bottle - Pours golden with a short white head that fades fast to a film but laces after that. Aroma is of bread and floral hops. Flavor is bready as well. A touch of lemon as well. Light and airy palate. Easy to drink but nothing much to remember. A good cause though!

Mar 7, 2006 This was the first Golden/Blond ale that we have tried in our beer club, and it wasn’t that different than other Pale Ales. IT had a nice dark golden color with some mild hops. Hey with a $1 going towards New Orleans, I will support them as often as I can find it here in Memphis.

Nov 17, 2005 Smallish head. Light golden color w/ steady strreams of carbonation. Tastes a little hoppy, lightly acidic finish. Very thin, I’m afraid. Could use a little more personality. Not bad, overall.

Apr 10, 2006 Gold body with a very light, non-existant white head. Aroma is typical of a Golden Ale, malts, honey, light corn (almost mead like). Flowery body, light hops... fair, but not great taste. Bland ending, again fair but not great.

Aug 11, 2007 Bottle. This one is decidely average. Not much to say about it. It pours with a pale golden color, displays some hoppy aroams together with malts and some citrus. The citrus is also most dominant in the flavor department and the body is fairly watery. All right but not memorable.
