SA Gold is a full-flavoured, hoppy and refreshing golden ale. Careful use of hops creates a satisfying bitterness, perfectly balanced by vibrant citrus aromas and complex hop flavours from late-hopping using Cascade and Styrian Goldings. A deliciously satisfying and refreshing pint!

A little lemon, and some straw. Golden pour with creamy head on cask. Light tangy finish. Not a lot to this. Cask at City Arms.

Rocky white head stayed on an unclear finely carbonated amber coloured body. Tangy, fruity & bitter aroma. Medium bodied, sharp on the tongue with a clean back. Pale malt, caramel, berries & stone fruit tastes with a bitter hoppy citrussy finish. Easy drinking.

Historical tick which I am adding as a rate so that I can see the impact it has on my stats. I think I had it in for this beer because a mate thought it was the 500 Beers To Try Before You Die tick when the gave it to me. But a pissy gold.

Can opens with wild gushing. Aroma & taste: buscuit malts and floral hops. Light to medium bitterness. Long hoppy finish. Generally decent.
