4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Nice bite, clean nose, fresh, must be the water? oh maybe the best hops in the U.S.?
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bert Grant’s Glorious Golden Ale--1998 12 oz. Bottle. 4.60% ABV. (2.5 / 5.0) Bright clear light amber color. Light citrus hop front followed by lightly flavored malt body. Very easy brew. Flavorful but without body. Finish is crisp with a touch of hop bitterness. Balanced. Sampled 5/5/1999.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Had this beer at GABF on 10/2/1999. Aroma is a light hop scent. Color as its name states is a nice golden with good carbonation and light head. Taste comes in on a light/medium body that has mild malt tones a full hop flavor and mellow bitterness. I think this is a tasty brew.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle pours a fairly clear dirty golden, small fizzly off-white head, medium carbonation, with fairly sticky lacing. Sublte grainy & malty nose. Fairly grainy on the tongue, but with a nice malty smoothness. Medium body & mouthfeel. Finishes fairly crisp, no nasty cereal aftertaste. Not as light as I had expected, but still decent. Not sure where my roomie found this one, but I thought this beer was long gone...
3.7 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
As with all Bert Grants beer, and to paraphrase somebody else. ’its the hops..’
Medium gold color, slightly cloudy, medium head. Mildly malty, mild hopped, somewhat citrusy. Light taste. Full flavor. Dry hopped beer. Full round mouthfeel. Finish is dry. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.
