Commercial Description:
Since 1516 Brewers have led the purity revolution. They mandated only four natural ingredients be used to brew beer. This Reinheistgebot law was the first ever food purity regulation and New Glarus Brewmaster Dan Carey has consistently respected our palates by employing yeast, water, barley and hops to explore a wide spectrum of flavor. Today Dan pushes the purity envelope by using Organic Hallertau Hops from Germany with Wisconsin organically malted barley to create a complex and assertively hoppy golden ale. This beer is even natrually carbonated, 100% bottle fermented means you can expect a flavor celebration to dance cleanly across your palate. Raise your glass and toast to Wisconsin’s common sense Revolution.

Exicted for this, so it was kind of a let down. Still good, just kind of bland and uninspiring. Hops are too acrid, body is too weak, carbonation is too strong. But it is organic... but does this mean organic gets a break because its "better" for the world?

12oz from motortoddhead. Pours gold with a bright white ring. Nose is sweet and light. Taste is sweet, light and refreshingly citrussy. Pretty nice apa.

Pours orange golden with a thin white head that disappears quickly, a little bit of lacing. Light grassy aroma, I notice a little citrus as well, easy drinking, but a nice sharp bitterness. Nothing spectacular, but solid. copyright grimreeser

Thanks to Skyview for bringing this bottle back for me. Hazy gold color with a thin head. Very dusty hop aroma. Quite a grainy flavor. The hops die down considerably. A little vegetal quality, probably from hops.

Light to medium orange body, thin clumping buff head. Bready, floral nose. Light, sweet body, sugary, with clover honey, floral hops, and light breads. I picked up a touch of alcohol, too. Slightly artificial-tasting. Serviceable and easy to drink.

12 oz bottle, via . Pours a dark gold body, clear, under a smallish fizzy off-white head that left some fairly heavy lacing. The nose is a little vegetal in nature, with crackery pale malt and maybe a touch of hops. The flavor is light with a certain pale, slightly doughy, maltiness and a little grassy hops on the finish. Mouthfeel is light bodied and airy, though it does have a certain doughy stickiness late in the finish. Overall, this was one of my least favorite from New Glarus, but it was pretty decent when compared to the realm of organic beers.

Golden of body with a short lived eggshell head that laces heavily, this has a pale malt sweetness to the aroma with a touch of candy corn and a faint herbl/floral/earthy hoppiness. Light on the flavor side, it has sweet malts, warm honeyed bread, and a very mild bitterness. Okay to drink, but difficult to recognize as an APA.

Pours gold with a thin white head. Aroma is a bit of hops and some malt. Flavor of honey, sweet malt, a bit of earthy hops, and bread. Finishes slightly sweet. Lightly carbonated and a very mild flavor. Very drinkable.
