Golden Hop IPA soars with the tropical notes of tangerine, mango and grapefruit from Mosaic and Amarillo Hops. Cascade in the hopback adds a bright floral, citrus undertone, complementing this light-bodied IPA's vibrant hop bouquet. Wheat malt gives Golden Hop its sunny color while Belgian yeast contributes to its clean, crisp feel.

Draft at Barcade, 1/11/16. Light hop aroma with a bit of Pale malt. Clear gold with a small head and light lace. Tastes thin and watery, just a bit of fruity hop and a mild sweetness. Thin, over carbonated, and kinda dull with a slightly dry close. Reminds me of a mediocre version of a Session IPA, but since it's 5.7% it doesn't even have the low ABV excuse. Needs to be consumed in large gulps to allow the flavors to really come through. Even then, nothing to exciting happens here. Disappointing.
