Our Golden Ale is worth getting to know. Balanced, easygoing and smooth all year long. What more could you want in a drinking companion? Don't overthink it. Just drink it! Cheers!

4oz pour at the Northern Virginia BrewFest. Poured a clear golden color with a small wispy head. Aroma was light sweet malts, crisp lager notes, some earthy hops. Flavor is light yeast notes, crisp malt. Touch sweet. Pleasant and pretty tasty for a first beer out of a new brewery, especially in a style that I’m not a huge fan of.
