Bottle shared in London - many thanks to Fiona! Pours clear burnished gold with a creamy head. Bready malt aroma with touches of orange and caramel. Medium sweet flavor with some oxidation, more caramel, candied orange. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Finishes with toasted biscuits, caramel, graham crackers. So so.

Bottle thanks to Wingman. It pours amber with a decent white head. The nose is soft, grainy, sweet, toasty, candy, apple and soft fruits. The taste is crisp, sweet, grainy, oily, apple, pear, apple, toasty, white sugar and grain with a short finish. Light-medium body and fine carbonation. Pretty basic, but not horrific.

Bottle shared thanks to Flbh. Golden light orange coloured pour with a thin off white head. Aroma is sweet rough grains, honey, little alcohol. Farmyard on the nose. Flavour is composed of earthy toffee apple, nutty, corn sugar. Palate is semi sweet, moderate carbonation. Meh. Not offensive.

Bottle courtesy of Flbh (the wingwoman). Golden amber white head. Smells bready. Tastes bready with a bit of honey. Not the best to be honest but a new country!

Fra 25 cl flaske (takk til Hennning F) på RBHD-samling på Fridtjofen april-15: tidligere på kvelden hadde vi Vex Yellow Monkey fra samme bryggeri, og Golden Ram har llitt mer å by på. Lett uklar gylden med kort skum. Bærtoner i aroma og smak, og litt honningsødme. Slank og middels kort i ettersmaken. På etiketten står det Dark ale, RB sier Amber. Uansett hadde jeg nok greid en hel flaske alene.

Shared 250 ml bottle at local tasting, thanks to Henning. Deep golden to amber colour, small white head. Aroma of caramel malts, wort and dust. The flavour has some caramel, but is not very sweet. Minimal hops.

Bottle at home in Barbados, 15th August 14. Amber coloured kind of fizzy bitter, reminded me of a poor macro keg bitter, John Smiths or something.
