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!

at a tasting, thanks, smallish creamy head, crystal clear gold color, biscuity malty aroma with a fruity hint, light fruity hoppy flavor, herbal hint and some maltiness, light to medium bitterness, light sourness. Simple but nice.

Gravity cask at the Walsall Camra, beer festival 2015. Poured a crystal clear straw colour with a thin broken white head. The aroma is light hop. The flavour is light bodied with a light malt, hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Light bodied with soft carbonation.

500ml bottle from Tesco - Hazy pale golden colour, medium white lacing head. Fruity aroma of ripe oranges and lime. Taste is rather on the sweet side, citrus fruit with a feint hint of bananas. Okay, but nowt special.

Cask @ Cricketers, Bedford. Mid-gold, clear as a bell. Bit of white head, heavy lacing. Aroma is not particularly strong: sweet flowery hops. Taste is sweet throughout with a slightly more bitter turn right at the finish. Refreshing. Palette is fuller than most ales of this ABV.
