“With its golden hue and gentle complexity, the Terrapin Golden Ale brings refreshing to a whole new level. Its combination of flavor, smoothness and drinkability is difficult to find in most craft beers. Sometimes even hopheads like us want nothing more than to enjoy a beer that is crisp, smooth and refreshing. That is why we created the perfect session beer - the Terrapin Golden Ale.”

[i] [b] Bottle at the Rake, Borough Market area, Lahndan tahn 21-06-08 in the company of Duff, Ang and Wrenbird ?[/b] [/i] Clinical looking beer light amber, tiny white rim of bubles, tastes soft some cardboard, little in way of hops or much else for that matter, nothing special I’m afraid.

Bottle, Utobeer, Borough Market. What a huge disappointment. Looked inviting enough in the glass. Golden with a white head. Downhill all the way after that. No real aroma. Watery, lacking in flavour. Shurely a lager ? Didn’t finish. Turtle pish.

12 fl oz bottle. Pours clear and golden orange with a lacing white head. Vague fruity hops and malt aroma. Dry breadish and mild bitter hops flavour. Holds a very minor fruity note lending towards orange/citrus. Bitter and medium dry finish yet with a mild fruity note.

Bottled from de Bierkoning. Hazy orange color, short head. Aroma of caramel malt, some hop. Light bitter taste, bit fruity. Nothing special.

Bottle from Utobeer. Paleish gold, very thin white head. Smells like a lager, it’s a bit dusty on finish. Not sure it’s a cream ale, bit of cardboard throughout. Some pilsner hops. Quite bitter on finish. Yep, just a little ugly, bit metallic.

(Bottle, Monk’s Café, Stockholm, 14 April 2008) Golden colour with frothy, white head. Fruity nose with notes of floral hops and tropical fruit. Slightly malty taste with fruity notes of lemon, tropical fruit, pineapple and a short finish with floral hops. Rather dry, making this light bodied brew quite drinkable. A decent thirst quencher, but hardly rocks my world.

Bottle courtesy of Unclemattie: Poured a golden color ale with a big foamy head with good retention and medium lacing. Aroma of sweet malt is dominant and somewhat enjoyable. Taste is a mix between sweet malt with some grassy notes. Overall, I thought this was well done but not very complex – a good session brew.

Hazy blond color. Is it an Ale? Useless Lager, with paper-like aroma; the flavor is a bit sweetish.
2007-09-21, bottle at Stockholm Beer Festival, 5-2-5-3-10=25
Blond color. Very simple Ale; at the end there is a light sweetness; there is also a light buttery flavor. Too simple.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of Degarth. Clear, golden with a creamy, white head. Slighly floral hop aroma. Medium body with lightly sweetish malt and a dry finish. Unspectacular but quite drinkable. 171107
