May 6, 2009 From the 12 fl. oz. bottle with no lot code or expiration date. It pours clear and golden with a half finger of white foamy head that lingers for several minutes but finally dissipates. Aromatic gassy and slightly hoppy tone. Pretty good mouthfeel with a flavor that is more malted than wheaty like other blondes. A halfway decent experience.

Apr 24, 2009 Tastes kind of salty and wheaty, but crisp and clean. I imagine it would be a good thirst quencher ice cold, as the description states.

Apr 23, 2009 Presentation: It was poured from a brown 12oz bottle into a pint glass.
Appearance: The body has a very clear appearance with some visible carbonation and a bright golden color. Its head is light and sudsy, bright white in color and fades out quickly leaving no lacing at all.
Smell: Its aroma is mild and brings only a light hint of grain with very mild hops in the background.
Taste/Mouth feel: A simple but nice light grain flavor and a very mild wheat twang mixes with a good balance of bitterness from hops. The body is fairly light and highly drinkable with a thin texture and average carbonation.
Notes: Its overall appearance is a bit dull and its flavor was simple and light making it a nice summer time beer.

Apr 21, 2009 Pours a translucent amber with a modest white-colored head. It has hints of roasted malt and contains flavors of malt, grain, and a faint touch of hops. Has a light body and is very drinkable

Apr 18, 2009 Pours a beautiful golden color with a thin white head and lots of tiny cascading bubbles. Nose is faintly of malt . Creamy on the palate. Light malt flavor with a nice dry aftertaste. For the style, this is a good ale but not exemplary. Fine companion to most light fare including barbequed chicken, salmon or nuts.

Apr 18, 2009 I recently tried this at a festival in Baltimore. Nice golden color...moderate head.....smooth flavor and finish, a little light on the flavor for my taste, but overall, not a bad beer

Apr 6, 2009 Drinking from a 12 oz. botttle of Hook & Ladder Golden Ale: This has a clear golden body with a creamy head and laces in spots. It has a sweet pale malt aroma with perhaps a dollop of honey. Sadly,it’s thin an watery with very little flavor - sweet light malt, corn flakes, and a suggestion of grass. Not very interesting.
