Can from Laurelwood Public House - PDX. As Laurelwood Golden Ale. Aroma is sweetish malt, some caramel, bread, hint of hops and fruit. Flavour is moderate to medium sweet and lightly bitter. Body is medium. Average Golden, bit too sweetish and dull.

Draught at Pumphouse, Richmond, BC; 6.4% ABV, 49 IBU
Hazy blond color with compact head. Some aroma of dank hops, not expected but nice. Smooth mouthfeel; it's lightly sour, definitively infected.
Unpleasant. QA, please.

Tap at BCS. Clearish gold with no head. Light yeast aromas with some grass and grain and skunk notes on the nose.No carbonation, flat and watery on the palate with a thin body. Skunky and grassy on the palate with a dry finish. Meh. Not terrible, but a good homebrew first attempt I guess.

Tap at Laurelwood, Sandy PDX, 25/05/13. Clear pale golden with a thin white head. Nose is pale malts, summer fruits, light grass, a rather thin nose. Taste comprises cereals, light sugar, fruits, touch of hoppage. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, crisp finish. Refreshing enough affair but a little 1D and on the bland side.

Sample at the Laurelwood Public House at PDX. The beer is a clear golden color with a medium fizzy white head that dissipates steadily. Spotty lacing on the glass. Aroma of grassy hops and malt. Light-bodied with flavors of floral hops, toasted malt and a bit of citrus. The finish is mildly bitter with a short grassy hop aftertaste. Decent overall.
