A distinctly West Coast inspired table beer that is designed for potential extended sessions. Goldynwell is full of flavour & complexity with smooth oat malt body and refreshing zest of Citra and Mosaic hops.
At a deceptively low 3% alc./vol. Goldynwell delivers everything you would expect in a carefully crafted beer!

Poured from the tap. Clear blonde with small white head. Mild saison yeast, a little weak, but it’s a table beer. Okay.

473ml can. Pours a slightly hazy blonde with a small, foamy, long lasting, white head that laces nicely. Semi-sweet aroma of grainy pale malt, lemon and piney hops. Sweet flavour of grainy pale malt, lemon and pine resin in a crisp, dry, bitter finish. Light body with a watery texture and average carbonation. Refreshing, thirst quenching and pretty tasty for such a low ABV beer. Totally crushable after mowing the lawn in the summer heat.

Clear light yellow body with thin foam, Nice piney hops on the nose, sweet, vague light grain notes. Flavour is more pine hops, soft sweet white wine notes. Lingering sugar on the mouth, a little thin. Not bad, okay for the abv.

473mL can, pours a cloudy dull yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out light saison yeast, gentle earth and a hint of bready malts. Flavour is very laid back, with light saison yeast, and earthy bready malt. A bit bitter, but pleasantly so, with a dry, bready malt finish. It's very light, but in the sense of having barely any character. Drinks like water. Underwhelming.

Draft - Light Lemongrass. Cloudy pale yellow with almost no head. Touch of lemon, bready and a bitter finish. Bitterness overwhelms for a light beer.

Draught at the brewery
Cloudy blond colour. They shouldn't use the name Folköl because basically it means watered down beer, but they made an effort to put some quality here. Sharp hops, very resiny, quite piney, stronger also because of the thin body. The mouthfeel is dry, weak, crisp. The only unpleasant note comes from the pithy bitterness in the finish and some metallic character.

On tap. Pours a murky turbid yellow with light head. Aromas of limes and herbal wheat. Flavors follow same with additional green berries, plus odd foresty notes.
