A drinker. This Golden Ale is a quality travel companion that aims to please with subtlety and aroma pop.
Gossamer Golden Ale used to be a year-round beer for us. We’ve always pulled it back out and have made tweaks to it over the years, but it continues to be a beer crammed with little details that floats like cirrus clouds in your glass. Our ability to create body at low ABV without the weight has gotten better over the years, which really shines in 2021 Gossamer. It still hits with bready, bright melon and is your beer when the sun is up. This new label tracks very well to the beer.

Sampled from the growler on the way to MiSBF, thanks to the kind sole who brought this. Poured a clear gold with a white head that dissipated to the edges. Aroma was quite grassy with some hay and a hint of underlying pine. Flavor was quite similar with the main note being grass and hay and pine backing that up.

Growler at RBSG. Pours a clear golden color with a medium creamy head. Good head retention and lacing. Hoppy aroma with peppery and spicy notes and well as some fruity hop notes. The taste is fruity and nutty with leafy and citrus hop notes. Medium bodied.
