Got this as "Buffalo Gold" at the Rock Bottom brewpub in Denver. Pours a clear, warm amber with a decent head that sticks around. Aroma is richly malty with a hint of fruit. Flavor is delicious and mouth-filling with a caramel undertone. Mouthfeel is smooth and pleasant. Very refreshing.

Bottle. Pours a rich gold with an aroma that reminds me of Grapenuts. Flavor is sweet and floral, with a sprinkling of honey throughout. Very oat branish taste that doesn’t offend. Nice lacing around the glass. Palate is slick. Very good beer; definite repeat.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a dark golden-amber color with a large yellow-white head. The aroma was tangy, dry and crisp floral hops. The flavor was dry, tangy and had a nice fruity and floral hop presence. A bit grainy and a little zing. Quite nicely quaffable and far better than I expected.

Pours golden with a medium off-white had with good lacing. Nose is initial sweet malt with honey notes. Flavor of honey/peach/apricot, slight floral hops notes, very low bitterness and almost no aftertaste. Buttery mouthfeel. Very good blonde.

Pours dark golden with a mostly receding off-white head. Taste is light caramel, herbal grasses. Medium bodied, lively carbonation.

<i<Bottled. Clear golden, minimal head. Aroma of orange and vanilla. Sweet and light-medium bodied with rounded mouthfeel. A light and creamy highly quaffable refreshing beer with low bitterness.

Fresh fruity, floral aroma with a decent white head and good lacing. Dark golden appearance, slightly hazy. Very thick mouthfeel. Good balance of hops and malt - much more body than your typical blond ale. Has a bit of a nutty character to it. A decent diversion.
