Gold is a beer to treasure. Made with a blend of Caramalt and Maris Otter malt and brewed using lashings of English Fuggles hops for fresh vitality and distinctly herbal, earthy notes, if you’re searching for a beer full of character, ‘X’ marks the spot.

Sampled @ GBBF day 2. Clear orange golden "apple juice" color, small off-white head. Smell and taste malts, a slightly hoppy fruitiness, a slight fruity bitterness. Decently balanced actually, even though I don’t really like it. Average body and carbonation. Ok beer.

Bottle from Waitrose and drunk at home. Clear amber colour with thick lasting beige head. A golden bitter really. Having had the regular bitter yesterday, this is about the same but with some slightly less brown malty flavour and less peppery bitter on the end. Good standard golden bitter though. Some biscuit in the malts, some bitter sting on the finish.

500ml bottle from local supermarket. Amber with a white head. The Aroma is fruity, and the taste is too, with an earthy bitterness and a touch of citrus.

Kupfer, malzig, weich und leicht. Typisch Ale-Bitter, etwas süßlich. Nett aber nicht umwerfend.
