Aug 5, 2007 Tap.
Clear light ale, faint fruit aromas, almost in ESB territory, but a very subdued flavor with a whisp of hops on the tail end. Perfectly nice, very clean, easy-drinking.

May 18, 2007 On tap at the Tied House in San Jose. Alpine Gold is a sparkling pale gold ale with a small white head. The aroma is of fresh pine hops. The mouthfeel is watery and chalky. The flavor is crisp and quick, with a tiny puff of bitterness. The aroma really saves this one, even if it seems a little out of place.

Mar 5, 2007 An average blonde ale. Pour was very very pale. Aroma is mild. Mouthfeel is smooth but still weak. Flavor is not bad. Very malty and full of barley. Not a fan of blonds and this is the norm.

Sep 19, 2006 On tap. Pale golden body with a thin white head. The flavor is for me close to an ordinary German style lager, relatively dry and a bit harsh. A smooth but watery mouthfeel,. Short aftertaste.

Aug 9, 2006 Draft at the San Jose brewery. Pours fizzy yellow with some white head that disappears momentarily. Very little carb, less body. Clingy finish of spicy hop.

Jan 22, 2005 Pours golden with thin head. Pretty nice mouthfeel for a blond, quite smooth. Decent beer for the style, but I’m not very partial to blonds (beer that is).

Jan 14, 2003 Nice color for a blonde. Faint but interesting nose. A good flavor with unthreatening but well balanced hops. Short finish and a bit weak feel to the mouth.
