Commercial Description:
This English-style Summer Ale has a bright golden color as the name indicates. Cascade hops impart a floral aroma that is accented by citrus notes lent from Chinook hops. The hop flavors mingle with with premium pale malted barley to create a flavorful ale that is crisp and refreshing.

this was a very dry beer. It’s aroa was a little sour and its flavor very bitter. Had a long aftertaste and a low abv. I won’t be looking for this one again

Bottle from Ledger’s in Berkeley, CA. One of the better pale ales I’ve had. Poured a golden color with a white head. Nice balance of citus hops with just a little bit of malt. Not bad.

I’m not huge on Pale Ales, and this one is no exception. I will say it’s the best I’ve had. It kept a consistent palate the whole way, and the bitterness was rather controlled. Cheers to Green Flash.

What a refreshing beer this was! Perfectly hopped, poured a cloudy golden colour with a thick white head. Aroma was delightful, floral and reminiscent of fresh hops off the vine. Taste was full, well carbonated and mildly citrus fruit.

This offering from Green Flash did not impress me as much as previous ones tasted. A clear deep amber body with a small but creamy white head gave or the aroma of citrus hops, fresh peaches, and traces of malted milk powder. The hops bitterness was evident in the flavor, with the slight sweetness of the malt and fruit mellowing the bite. Very average.
