Stoudts Gold Lager

Brewed by Stoudts Brewing Co.
Style: Dortmunder/Helles
Adamstown, Pennsylvania USA

Draft. Pours gold with a white head. The aroma is light and malty with a hint of fruity sweetness. The flavor is well balanced with lighter notes of sweet caramel and a hint of hops in the finish. Nice.

12 oz bottle. Poured gold with a creamy white head. Smelled of corn, grains, and grass. Tasted of grain, straw, and aa grassy hop finish. Not too bad.

Meh. This really didn’t do anything for me. Pours a very clear yellow with little head and little carbonation. Very little nose whatsoever. Taste was slightly grainy with little hop flavor. Better than drinking a Bud, but not much. I wouldn’t pay to drink this again.

Completely clear bright yellow with a frothy white head. Very few carbonation bubbles. Aromas of sweet corn and a little hops. Not much of a flavor - typical pale lager. Palate was surprisingly more carbonated than it looked, but still light-bodied and watery. After a 40 minute lecture at the brewery from the owner, Ed Stoudt, about the evils of the American national brands, this beer was only marginally better than Miller/Coors/Bud Light.

I found this surprisingly drinkable. Mildly sweet, grainy/corny. A little bit of buttery taste and slight cardboard/paper but not in a bad way (Turd called it "wet paper towels"). Mild bitter hops. Nice.

Clear yellow pour fluffy white head. Overly grainy aroma. Sweet corn and grass. Thin bodied. Good summer beer potential

The has anice bitter feel that you get from a German Helles. It is crisp and clean to the palate with a hoppy finish. Reminds me of a German Heineken. Smooth and golden color, but with a little kick. The beer also hasa very dense head with excellent lacing. Overall, an extremley nice looking and tasting beer.

Pours a translucent light yellow with a thin frothy white head. The nose is sweet, corn, grassy, bready, earthy lager feel. The flavor is sweet, corny, grassy, decent, lacks complexity. The palate is a tad thin and crisp.
