Our Golden Bitter is a light bodied hoppy ale with a distinct bitterness matched by fresh aromas from a single hop – the high-alpha Citra from the Yakima Valley. This California-style ale is higher in alcohol and has an huge hop profile
compared to traditional golden ales.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours a cloudy golden with a small, white head. Nose has an initial sweet fruitiness but then comes both metal and tartness. Rich, malty and fruity but again this tartness - as in orange juice. Some late hops. Doesn’t appear very clean. 170913

Bottled, from Systembolaget. Cloudy golden, mid sized head. Cidery chalky nose. Sweetish with medium body and clean, rounded mouthfeel. Honey with tart cider, and lemon. Notes of chalk and medicin. Peppery mead-like finish. Dominated by off flavours.

Svårdefinierbar. Väldigt fruktig, smak och doft av humle, tropisk frukt, juicekänsla, liten kolsyra med en tydlig grapebeska. Ingen traditionell bitter, annorlunda och intressant.
