Commercial Description:
This golden colored ale is smooth, light in flavor, and still retains a slight crispness in its finish, very similar to a European-style pilsner. Our Coronado Golden is delicately hopped with Czechoslovakian Saaz hops, traditionally used in making the classic pilsner. It is our most popular beer at our restaurant and considered our gateway beer into the micro-brew world.

Pours hazy amber with a large head. Aroma is of corn. Taste was awful. After a few drinks I couldn’t get past the "ashtray" taste this brew left in my mouth. I ended up pouring out the rest. I don’t know if this was a bad bottle or what! Would not recommend.

Pours a clear golden hue with a super foamy white head. Light, sweet malty nose with decent grainy notes. Mild palate with sweet malt/grain and a subtle hoppy dry, slightly bitter finish. Easy drinking and pleasant. Nothing spectacular, but something to enjoy after a long day in the sun.

Bottle available in the Sweet Suite at Petco Park. 12 bottles of coors light and only 6 of these?? Dang what to have. So I chose this. It was ok. Nothing special. Enjoyable in the sense it was beer, I was at a baseball game living the good life in a Suite. Moved on to Jack Daniels shortly after this. Yeah!

Draft… <b>RBSG ’08</b>… Clear, light yellow ale with a mid-sized, wispy, white head. Excellent retention. The aroma is so subtle; I’m unable to pull much from it. Light-bodied and spritzy. The flavor is mostly nondescript, but does lean barely on the bitter side of balance. Short, crisp, clean finish. Innofensive, mild, refreshing beer.

Drinkable, but not something I would buy again. A crisp looking golden colored beer with rapidly receeding white head. Corny, malty aroma with a lightly hopped and slight malt flavor. Aftertaste is metallic and bitter.

On tap, all over the place. I understand this is not a beer nerds dream beer style, but I like it. It’s got a nice hop bite, clean refreshing.
