COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask; Regular.
Clwyd Gold has an abv of 3.5% and an ’old fashioned’ ruby colour. The smooth, full malt / biscuity palate is balanced nicely by the mid range bitterness which makes Clwyd Gold especially popular in North Wales.

Cask (gravity dispense) at Battersea Beer Festival, 11 February 2010. Quite dark for a golden ale. Old gold tending towards amber in colour. Not a lot of hop in the aroma. Biscuity malt and light fruit on the palate. Dry and drinkable but not very aromatic.

maeib (6634) - Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, ENGLAND - MAY 1, 2008
Cask conditioned - handpump - Malt Shovel, Northampton. A golden coloured lively beer with a white head and lacing. The aroma is slightly grassy hop. The taste has more grass, and is a simple drinkable beer. Nothing bad but just a bit boring.
