Bottle-poured a light golden color w/almost no head. Slight malted aroma, maybe even some corn. Somewhat sweet, creamy flavor. Somewhat effervescent. Somewhat of a short floral finish. Somewhat of a very basic brew which I wouldn’t bother to seek out; you can drink if offered, but that’s about it. It’s just...somewhat.

Pours a hazy yellow with a thin head; the aroma barely registers as anything but the slightest amount of malt. This might make for a decent transition ale for those more used to the mega-brewery options but this really is something that we left behind a long, long time ago. Maybe it’d make for a lawnmower ale, but that cost would prohibit that.

OK beer. Nothing spectacular here. Yellow slightly hazy in color. Wouldn’t go out of my way to try this one.

Botlle 12 oz
Bright sunny gold with gentle foggy haze, medium light white top.3-
Crisp grainy nose m, light earthy notes.
Slightly fruity in character, followed by short hop episode; softer middle and finish (with late fruity re-appearance).If you push hard enough I would put this under Kolsch style, yes. You might like this brew if you allow it.

Light golden color. Nothing spectacular. Bitter aroma, bland taste. Not a fan of the style or the beer.

Pours well. Excellent hoppy aroma flavor. Slight bitter aftertaste. Interestingly enough, the Golden Ale is lighter than the Pale Ale. Overall, very enjoyable.

Champagney appearance with a big-bubbled white head. Aroma is sweet ang somewhat grassy . Taste is light and somewhat bitter. Does not stand out in any way. $2/12oz
