J.T. Whitneys Goldenshine

Formerly brewed at J.T. Whitneys Pub & Brewery
Style: Golden Ale/Blond Ale
Madison, Wisconsin USA

Light gold color with a small white head. LIght honey, malt and floral hops aroma. Dry malt flavors with a hint of honey. Light but with a biting bitterness.

Golden color, no head. Vague honey aroma. Taste is directed by Saaz hops, but it has a slightly sweet tint. Not bad, but not one to look forward to.

sample at brewery (being rated in real time using thier wi fi hotspot) . NOt a whole lot of flavoe but after seeing the previous ratings, it was better than I expected. Better than any major brewery light beer and a good place to start the sampler. Nothing special.

Amber/Honey Coloring. No Head. Aroma Is Sweet, Citrusy. Flavor Has Honey, Grain. Dry and Crispy at End. Definitly Not a Bad Light Ale.

Clear pale yellow in color with no head. Aroma is biscuits and wet dog. Crisp, clean and brisk. Honey and wheat bread leads the way for flavor, followed by a dash of lemon juice. Predictable, but not repulsive.

On draught at the brewpub in Western Madison, Wisconsin. Pours a clear golden blonde brew with a fast dissolving white head that leaves behind some spotty lacing and white ring. Aroma of light golden grain malt, a touch of corn character, grassy hops and a touch of pear. Taste is light bodied, plenty of carbonation with flavors of golden grain malt, grassy hops and some light biscuit. Finish is semi-dry, crisp and then no aftertaste. A light summer lawnmower beer at best.

This brew pours a clear golden colour with a little white head. Pretty malty, decent lacing but aroma is grainy with a hint of hops. Watery mouthfeel which turned me off. Overall a bland tasting beer.

Weak malty aroma. Clear light gold, thin white head, no lace. Generic malt with just a bit of noble hops. Unclean biscuity finish on the first couple sips, goes away later. Sour twang. Watery mouthfeel.
