Description
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.

Bottle shared in NYC - many thanks to Bruce. Pours black-brown with a creamy, khaki head. The nose has rich toasted toffee, berries, coconut, vanilla, moderate roast. Medium to big sweet flavour with rich, gooey chocolate character, oily vanilla. Full bodied, chewy, with fine carbonation. Sticky finish, with more gooey chocolate, light cinnamon, mellow roast, burnt graham crackers, ripe berries. Great stuff overall.

Bottle at Old Chicago Lakewood Union. Coors, yeah, but....decent imperial lager, tasty, nice looking. Don’t like the macros masquerading as a micro, but the product is what is. Creamy , faint aroma, but tastes great.

Clear, copper colored, small non lasting beige head. Aroma is of some malt, caramel, some brown sugar and bit herbal notes. Taste is medium sweet caramel, biscuit and brown sugar, medium- herbal bitterness with a hint of citrus, bit bready, somewhat dry, actually a pleasant finish and aftertaste. Medium bodied, average carbonation. Not that bad. (bottle from the brewery)
