Molson Brewmasters have created a new standard in smoothness with Molson Golden. Each batch is brewed with pure spring water and features a unique two part hopping procedure. Galena hop essences are added in the brewing kettle, followed by the addition of a patented, mild hop after fermentation.

VTHopHead (1340) - Barre, Vermont, USA - MAY 31, 2004
Bottle - Yellow with a very small white head. Has a slight hop aroma, but no malt. Some bitterness. Slightly skunked. OK, but not something I would seek out...

not bad; seemed fruiter and sweeter than most standard lagers. quite refreshing and smooth, but little to make it stand out in this lame crowd.

Reid (1385) - Salem,Oregon, Oregon, USA - MAY 16, 2004
Typical macro lager in appearance..light yellow with a small white head. Quite a strong "pilsner" like aroma..grassy and it seems fresh. Quite a smooth sweet taste then a small hop bite is detected..some bitterness left in the aftertaste. Average mouthfeel..though it does tend to become cloying. overall not that bad really for a Canadian lager.

HopsOrDie (687) - New Lenox, Illinois, USA - MAY 10, 2004
Clear, yellow beer. Aroma is a typical underhopped pilsner aroma. Flavor is decent. Crisp with a slight hop flavor. Very refreshing lager that’s not bad for a day of drinking.

muzzlehatch (4425) - Burlington, Vermont, USA - MAY 5, 2004
12 oz bottle. Clear yellow, no head. I’m trying to come up with something to say about the nose..mmm...Lemon Pinesol maybe? Flavor is very sweet, apple-lemon, not exactly fresh, slightly chemical, extremely thin at the end. No worse than I expected, I guess.

Kingman (26) - Lexington, Ohio, USA - APR 27, 2004
Strong deep flavor. Better than anything domestic that is equivelently priced. Pours with a medium head and finishes clean.

Suttree (3765) - Knoxville, Tennessee, USA - APR 17, 2004
UPDATED: JUN 23, 2004 Gimme an S! Gimme a K! Gimme an UNKED! Whats that spell? Thats right folks, another green bottle skunked. But this was a nice looking beer, at least. Clear gold, with a big white head. Faint hop flavor, a few stale flavors at the finish.

Not bad. very smooth, pours deep yellow. Decent hop presence. Finishes very smooth and crisp. I would drink this again. I have had skunked bottles, though. There is no excuse for the green bottles.
