Commercial Description:
A golden ale is a delicate balance of malt and hops. To achieve this perfect balance, the ratio of malt to hops in the Golden Number Ale is based upon the actual golden number, the Fibonacci Sequence, or Phi as the Greeks knew it. This number's pervasive appearance throughout nature creates a sense of balance, harmony and beauty in art, architecture, composition, space - and now beer! Some believe this number is a universal constant of design, the signature of God. (Some believe it is a perfect ratio of malt and hops.) And for most of you playing along at home, the actual number is 1.6180339887.....

Tap. Pours gold with small white head. Aroma of malt, sweetness, fruit. Taste is also malty sweet, with some light hop bitterness and spice. Body is average, and finish is a little bitter

Pours a clear golden color with a white head. Aroma is malty, honey, slightly toasty, grain, some light fruitiness, and some peppery hops. Flavor is pilsner malts, grain, honey, light fruitiness and a nice bitter peppery finish.

It comes out a translucent golden color with a white head. Aroma is crisp and malty with a fruity hint. Flavor is crisp, malty, and subtly sweet; there is just a touch of hoppy bitterness. Overall, not complex or outstanding, but refreshing. Probably a good choice for people who prefer simple lagers.

Sampler at the brewery. Hazy yellow pour with a wispy head. A bit of a grainy aroma but is it off in a vegetal way. Light tasting brew that has a basic light biscuit and grainy grain thing going on. The is a touch of sweetness that does not seem misplaced and a touch of grass to the finish. Medium light body and fairly wet. I was not totally put off by this but I would not recommend it to any one other that your BMC drinkers.

A bitter flavor in the begining. Good flavor overall. Strong but still refreshing. Very good beer, resembles a lager.
