hazy copper, whispy thin fine off white head, touch of lace, sweet bready malty aroma, good body, nicely bittered malt flavor, yeasty character, nice light long bitter finish like a fine ESB, a surprising amount of flavor and very drinkable for what’s named a golden ale

| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Aug 17, 2007 Bottle. Sweetish yeasty aroma with a dose of lemon and strange stale bread malt. Clear golden body, very effervescent with a creamy white head. Lightly bitter taste, bitterness seemingly injected in place of any other kind of flavor, dry and crisp on a medium body, gritty hop finish. Not bad. KUEric (632), Chevy Chase, Maryland, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Aug 1, 2007 Ahha! I thought so!
I thought this tasted like an APA, but the word golden on the front had me doubting myself if it might have been a lagar, couldn’t imagine it was with its citrusy hops and toffe malt flavors. A very good representation of an APA, but nothing too spectacular. PorterPounder (3148), Tallahassee, Florida, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jul 8, 2007 Columbia, SC - Green’s Discount Beverages - 12 oz bottle - part of a 6 pak mixer. Slightly hazy, medium orange pour - nice thickish white head - solid lacing. Fresh hoppy aroma, with hints of spruce and floral notes. Flavor has some toffee accents, a hint of citrus and
nectarines and finishes with a chocolatey back end. Mouthfeel is thick enough. One of the best I had from the mixed six pack. bbp182 (255), Levittown, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 26, 2007 The smell is sweet and hoppy actually. Golden in color, hence the golden ale. Bitter, little hoppy. It’s ok, nothing special. wheninhell (486), louisville, Kentucky, USA
