Commercial Description:
Fleur-de-lis Restoration Ale is made with English Pale, Lager, Crystal and Cara Pils malted barley. We liberally hopped and dry hopped our Ale with American Cascade and Centennial hops and fermented it with California Ale yeast. The result is a brilliant gold ale with a rich body, mild bitterness and a snappy fresh citrus hop flavor and aroma.

From bottle. Poured light orange with thin head. Only slight malt on the nose. Thin floral hop flavors without any distinctive characteristic. Pass.

Bottle. Poured a clear amber with a small white head. Aroma was fruity. Flavor of malt with a slight hop bite. Light bodied. Good summer brew.

This is the best golden/blond I’ve had yet. Aroma was nice and hoppy with a little lemony zest to it. Pour was a nice light gold with lots of tiny bubbles and a nice 1 finger white head. Taste was very tart and hoppy. Nice lemony citrus hops with strong carbonation that bites the cheeks and makes you say "ahhh" after swallowing.

Draught. Light amber in color, smallish white foamy head. It has a light, fruity, fresh, hoppy aroma. The flavor notes are a fresh fruity malt character. It has a light body, with a zesty mouthfeel, and a clear and clean finish. Pretty good choice for the heat oif the summer.

Light amber color with thin head and slight malt aroma. Mild bitterness and little hop taste and mild malt profile. Not much going on, it’s thin on the tongue but basically refreshing.

Bottle. Not so good. Watery mouthfull, lacking in depth, void of exciting or challenging flavour, no real finish to speak of. Quite an uneventful "restoration" this turned out to be.

12oz bottle 7/20/08-A light amber body with a small white head which emits an aroma of hops and citrus. The flavor is the same with a slight malt and cleanser taste. This light to medium bodied brew is not bad but nothing to write home about.

Bottle. Pours orange with an off white head. Sweet aroma with floral hops and caramel. Medium body. Flavor is again sweet with caramel, floral, grass, and a touch of citrus. Not bad.
