In the bottle at the 2004 Crescent Moon Vintage Beer Tasting. This was from the late 80’s and was still fantastic! It was like drinking a homebrew. Big malt flavor and good hop overtones. Sad that this did not make it.

Light gold color. Small to no head. Aroma is malty with a slight touch of butterscotch. Not your typical tasting lager. Malty with a nice crisp finish. Kind of sweet. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and dry. Aftertaste is sweet.

3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20 BeerLimey (2136) - California, USA - APR 23, 2002
My initial thoughts were another microbrewed shot at the classic Bohemian style but this is something completely different. A sweet butterscotch/toffee aroma and taste is a complete surprise while some hop cripness and dryness in the finish balances out pretty well. Decent lager and cheap too.

The lightest beer in the Golden Pacific line with a yeasty aromatic component. More character than typical might be ascribed to a distinct roasty component.
