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.

Bottle wife bought in Wis. Good cotton candy aroma. Golden body with white head. Decent sweet bittering of hop flavor. Clean on the palate best organic so far and I’ve had some crappy ones.

Not a fan. I’ve not yet found an organic beer that struck me as good, to bad as I normally like apa’s. This was a decnet simple clean beer, but was just not special. It lacked a clean enough citrus or ftruit balance to the hops, had to light of an aroma and to thin of a palate. But I’d still drink this over a lot of things on a hot day.

Pours a hazy bright orange with a 3 finger yellowish head that has excellent retention. Aroma is pretty weak... lots of cirtus notes a little herbal, tea, and caramel. Flavor was a real suprise, I was expecting much less based on the aroma but it starts out with a nice creamy caramel, some sweet bread rolls, a hint of floral sweetness and leads into a beautiful hop bouquet that comes in suprisingly late, juicy citrus sweet grass and a little lemon-lime. The finish is the same citrus note and a suprisingly rich caramel fade accompanied by just enough bitterness to keep the balance. Palate is light and sprizy with an active but fairly soft carbonation and tickles the palate without being too harsh. This is a really good APA, perfect BBQ beer.

Bottle. Medium amber body with a small and quickly diminishing off-white head. The aroma is lightly sweet with hints of toasted grain and bread and grass. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter with a lightly sweet and lightly to moderately bitter finish. Medium body with a smooth texture. Way too timid for an APA (no assertive hop profile in either the aroma or flavor), but very tasty as a golden/blond. Styles aside, easy drinking.

Bottle. Hazy orange pour, little carbonation with a sweet and grassy aroma. Flavor starts out sweet orange citrus, then mellow into hops and some bitterness on the aftertaste. As always, another good NG beer.

Pours a hazy orange with a medium head. Aroma of caramel with a light spiciness. Taste is malty with some citrus and a subtle earthy hopiness. Very creamy mouthfeel. A very good, sessionable beer.
