Black Mountain Gold

Formerly brewed at Black Mountain Brewing Co.
Style: Pale Lager
Cave Creek, Arizona USA

On draught at the brewpub, adjacent to the brewery in Cave Creek, AZ. Pours a clear golden pale blonde brew with a creamy white head that has some good lacing and retention. Aroma of slightly roasted mujlti-grain white malt, a touch of citrus zest and honey. Taste is creamy, smooth, light to medium bodied with flavors of light bready malt and some citrus zest. Finish is slightly water, some malt flavor and then a clean aftertaste.

Basically the average pale style lager...well, average in taste. Nothing great about it. Bland, lacking character in all aspects. Decent at best

First whiff of this one thougt I had a Miller Lite. Aroma of lite pilsner beer gainy. Gold body small head that goes flat. Light bitterness to the flavor. Clean and fresh I would have to disagree. Kind of stale on palate.

Light yellow with lacy head. Sweet scent. Malty. Mellow. Average.

Unimpressive to say the least. Drinkable to say the most.

On the pour a translucent gold with a decent white head that is frothy in texture, the lace adequate to cover the glass. Nose is fresh, crisp and clean, start is somewhat sweet, and the top thin to middling in feel to the palate. Finish is moderate in carbonation, the hops apropos to the style, a beer meant for the hot times of the year, drinkable but as I said before lagers, just don’t do a thing for me.
