About
AC Golden is a small-batch brewery nestled within the walls of the Coors brewery in Golden, CO. Named in tribute to our founding brewmaster and eternal entrepreneur, Adolph Coors. The thought was to carve out a space that gave our brewers enough runway to invent, explore, and roll up their sleeves to brew exceptional beers that have a story to share. Just like Adolph Coors did back in 1873.

Admin Note: Brewery is located inside the Coors Production facility. Home of the Colorado Native Brand.

Colorado Native Amber Lager from AC Golden Brewing Company
13 years ago
6/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 5 Flavor 6 Texture 8 Overall 5
Bottle at Ungstrup’s. Pours slightly hazy orange amver with small off-white head. Clear aroma of citrus and hops with a subtle note of honey. Bitter, hoppy onset, giving way to sweet notes of malt and honey, ending dry. OK but is it a Premium Lager? It tastes more like a mixture of SHV and APA.

6.6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 6.5
Bottle thanks to the Dood! Labeled as Ctyat. Pours engine oil black with a dark brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has notes of bitter chocolate with a good amount of must and some boozy whiskey. Flavor has more sweetness from dark grains and chocolate with a musty whiskey note towards the finish. A bit muddled.

Full and smooth body with flavors of oaky bourbon, vanilla and malt. The finish is moderately boozy with a malty aftertaste. Above average overall.
