  Golden / Blonde Ale Special
Score
6.78
ABV: 6.5% IBU: - Ticks: 5
A marriage of the dry and bitter west coast IPA style to spicy clean Belgian blonde ales, delivering a complex, bright, and refreshing hybrid. American Amarillo, Centennial, and Cascade give bright citrus, orange, and pine notes which add to mellow fruitiness and crisp spiciness of Belgian abbey ales.

Can from Lupe Pintos. Hazy bronze body with an off-white head that fades. Steady carbonation. Patchy lacing. Aroma of juicy tangerine, peach, nutmeg and orange peel. Flavour of black pepper, cooked orange and cloves. Medium body with a slick texture. Light fizz. A tangy, spicy beer.

Can from Appellation Wines.
Appearance - golden yellow to orange with a light haze and a fluffy snow white head.
Nose - orange, mango, melon and apricot.
Taste - grassy up front then the orange and melon kick in, with the grassiness returning on the finish.
Palate - light to medium bodied with a bitter finish.
Overall - I suppose this is what a golden ale is supposed to be though I couldn't help being slightly disappointed with the taste when the nose promised so much tropical fruit.
