Golden Ale is the first beer we ever brewed. We were inspired coming back from a trip to UK. This was back in 2004. During the first year of production we changed the recipe quite a lot. Today it’s one of the most popular Ales in Sweden. We think it’s the perfect pub beer but it goes well to many different dishes as well. Golden Ale is characterised by a clean malt flavour, medium body and medium bitterness. The two different hop varieties contribute with earthy notes with a hint of honey and citrus

Bottle, 0.33l. Clear golden color with thin creamy white head and average sparkling appearance. Aroma is grassy, grainy, dusty and piney. Taste starts with moderate sweet toasted malt, following is slightly sour grassy and grainy, mouthfeel is astringent and dry, while finish is heavy bitter. Light to medium body, slick texture and lively carbonation in palate. Solid grassy golden ale...

Pours a clear golden color, topped with a medium sized white head, slowly disappearing. Piney aroma, some citruses and quite dusty. A bit malty and resiny backbone. Sweet start, a bit fruity really. Very gentle hoppy bitterness in the finish, and quite metalic aftertaste. Light, but nothing really special.

33 cl bottle. Golden to light orange color, almost clear, short white head. Hoppy smell. Aroma of sugary malts with a fruity tone, hints of honey, backed by a decent hoppy bitterness. Medium body, light texture, smooth aromatic bitter finish. Very clean, simple but nice, i bet this one goes well in quantity, a small bottle is not enough.
