Very nice and drinkable golden ale. Often at the brewery dance room this is like $1.50 a bottle -- good deal, nice beer. Nothing special, but better than sipping a bud light.

I enjoyed it, but certainly nothing special. Smooth and refreshing with a mellow taste. A good alternative to the typical macro ale.

Good head formation that stayed with the drink. Modest hop flavor but had all characteristics of a good ale. Color was like gold. This is good every day ale. I enjoyed the ale at a Ground Hog day party.

Clear yellow, thin white head. Light malt aroma. Faint chocolate flavour with some fish tones.

far too filling for a ’lite’ beer - like drinking a jar of yeast. difficult to finish more than 2 at a time, and I was (trying to) slam beers at a bachelor party. gives me a horrendous hang over, just like 90% of the Richbrau stuff. just plain foul.

Goldens are always a bit boring and this one is no exception. Light sweetness with the malt and I got very little if any hop character. Slightly doughy with a touch of bitterness. Not bad, but still very boring.
