Williams Brothers Gold (Bottle)

Brewed by Williams Brothers (Heather Ales)
Style: Golden Ale/Blond Ale
Alloa, Central, Scotland

Bottled. Excuse me while I go all giggly. It may have been the company I kept or the mad dogs weather but this just scored all the way for me. Lovely light gold body, faintly floral aroma, tightrope balanced flavours (malts covered in liquid fruit) and a simple short finish.

Bottle from a London Oddbins. Golden beer, fluffy head. Very aromatic, full flavour. Belgian yeast profile, fruity, a little sourness. Bread crust, dusty finish. A new favourite - way above the standard dull British Golden ale.

This is a deliciously light, fragrant beer. And with only 3.9% alcohol, I can risk having more than one glass!

Clear golden appearance pouring flat with virtually no carbonisation. Citrus flavours bounce of your taste buds leaving a refreshing and lively mouthfeel. Very impressive.

Bottled. An orange gold coloured beer with a wispy white head. The aroma is a bit grapefruit and lemony. The taste is lovely resiny hops. Quite full in the mouth and very much in an APA style with the hops really standing out against a malty background. Very nice indeed.

Poured from the bottle, a clear copper colour with some carbonation and a thin white bubby head. A deliciously strong hoppy aroma of citrus fruits and peaches. A smooth mouthfeel with buttery citrus flavours, a subtle hint of vanilla, and a short dy finish. Very refreshing and enjoyable.

Clean gold colour, fine bead resulting in a good white head, lasts well down the glass. Fine aroma of fresh citrus fruit and vanilla. A well balanced palate has sweetish malt and nice acidity from the hops. The finish lasts well....nice beer!

3,9% ABV
Hazy blond color; low carbonation and thin head. Fresh aroma, with light aroma of malt and hop, surprising. Light body, with some malt flavor, some sweetness, light fudge, herbal tea touch; quite strong bitterness, a bit metallic at the end. A bottle with cask conditioned quality, a good surprise.
