Commercial Description:
Crisp and refreshing, Max Gold is a classic Pilsner style lager that has a medium body and a beautiful gold color. Its slight malt sweetness gives way to a complex hop finish, created by a blend of Tradition and Saaz hops.

Location: On tap at the downtown Atlanta location 4/16/09

Overall Impression: Found this one to be an accurate example of a style that is usually pretty boring. I didn’t enjoy this one much at all. It’s a drop better then most of the macros, and that’s about it.

on tap-pours a retaining foamy white head and pale yellow color. Aroma is fruit, medium malt, floral. Taste is fruit, medium malt, then floral with lots of spicy (saaz) hops, more than standard towards an imperial pilsner, crisp, dry.

Pours a nice clear golden amber, looks better than the typical American lager. Aroma is pleasant, both hoppy and malty. Flavor is mainly hoppy and has some malt component and a hint of bitterness. This is a lively lager, pleasant to drink, a good companion with lunch.

Light colour, no head to speak of. Crisp, clean, bitter particular in finish that was malted, maybe not enough. Some saaz hops present, so pilsner like substitute for the macros. Not bad. Glass had bleach in it so negative on smell

Draught. Golden-copper, with medium white head and nice lacing. Lightly malty aroma with some hops. Flavor is grainy and bitter. Very crisp. Nice full bitter flavor, dry finish, grass in aftertaste.

On tap at the brewpub. This one has 5% abv according to the bartender. Dark clear yellow. tasty alfalfa taste. slight hop scent. flavor gets harsh when it lingers - pleasant while drinking. too much residual bitterness.
