Feb 3, 2006 Medium white head on a golden body. Sweet malt aroma. Sweet malty flavor that goes down quite well.

Jan 16, 2006 Aroma comes off soapy and herbal to me. Color is copper with a firm, lasting, thumb thick white head. The commercial description says it all: a slightly sweet, malty flavor with a citrusy finish. Although I would add there is an ever so slight spiciness in the finish that i think would accompany hearty foods like meats, burgers or Buffalo Wings VERY well.

Dec 26, 2005 Clear golden body with a sudsy, white head. Surprisingly aromatic with some warm toastiness and an impression of coarse, earthy English hops. Some nice fresh malt character but the beer is mostly dry with prominent hops that provide wood stem flavors and crisp bitterness. A nice, enjoyable session ale.

Nov 30, 2005 The beer was fair. This was my second Golden the weekend I had it, and this was 10 times better, yet this ale is far from a "good" beer in my opinion. There are many APAs out there... I think I will continue my quest for the bigger and better.

Oct 22, 2005 From 12 oz bottle. Clear light amber/gold color, white somewhat thin head. Fair lacing. Flowery hop nose with a bit of grassyness. Taste is citrusy, kind of grapefruit with a small hop bitter/bite. Hops stay with you in the finish, while the citrus slowly fades. Crisp and easy drinking. Maybe not a great example of an amber, but very good overall.

Jun 29, 2005 Bottle. Nice aroma, very citrusy, lemon perhaps? Nice malty aftertaste. Rather refreshing, a good session beer.
