Golden hour in a glass. Citra & Mosaic hops light the way—sunny, citrusy, and a little bit funky—while the soft brown ale base brings smooth roasted vibes without the weight.
Golden Brown walks the line between a crisp hop-forward ale and a toasty malt hug. Easy on the booze, high on drinkability. Like a lazy groove that won’t quit.
Brewed for mellow afternoons, radiant evenings, and soundtracked by The Stranglers. Never a frown.
What to Expect
Appearance: Light chestnut with golden edges and a frothy head

Mouthfeel: Light, silky, sessionable
Ingredients
GRAINS: Wheat malt, Barley malt, Oats
HOPS: Citra, Mosaic
ABV: 4,5%

On tap @ Café Derat, Utrecht.
Murky brown with an off-white head. Hoppy aroma with some toasted bread and biscuit notes. Sweet taste with a sweet finish. Odd but tasty.

Can from Jumbo at home. Weird murky brown. Some caramel and chestnuts, bread crust, a bit of zesty hops, coffee with a ton of cheap creamer. Light sweet and bitter. Over light bodied. Not bad at all, but it's very bland and not really very hoppy either. Could be nice on a hot day maybe.

Taster at kompaan, light murky brown, small head. Aroma is odd, malty, tart, hops. Taste is the same, tastes infected. Glad i got a free sample of the staff to decide if i liked it
