Good stuff. I really like ale, but after 14 beers tonight, I have a hard time measuring.

I read the previous ratings before drinking this beer, and I thought it was going to be an average beer. When I actually drank it, I was pleasantly surprised. It was far better than what I had been reading. It had a nose that was malty and yeasty. It poured with a small head and little to no lacing. It had a nice sweet malty taste, with a nice hop finish. This would make a great session beer. I will definately buy this again and again and again.

nice lite colored head that stuck around for a while.Color was amber.Sweet malty tea aroma with a hint of lemon.Flavor was malty sweet with a lemon grass taste and a definate big hop presence.The carbonation is perfect rite where it should be.Theres a lemon,hop after taste that is slightly bitter but the pleasant kind that doesn't bite to hardthe finish is definately dry almost like sahara desert dry the only thing that hangs around is the hops,and ohhhh it's good definately a brew that is easy to drink in high volume not just 1 and i've had enough.

Bottled. Kind of surprised this does not score higher with the masses. This golden ale is hoppy and sweet. A very crisp ale.
