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 big thanks to Bill. It pours hazy gold with a medium white head. The nose is sweet, woody, vanilla, barnyard, gooseberry, some acidity and sweet lemon. The taste is crisp, tart, acidic, gooseberry, lemon sherbet, lemon juice, white grape and big mouth-pucker with a dry, tart finish. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Tart and pretty acidic. Rather nice stuff anyhow.

Bottle shared in London. Pours hazy yellow with a creamy white head. Lots of rich, ripe, tart lemon in the nose, some grass, some pear, salt. Light sweet flavor with strong citric bite, slight funk, high acidity, sweat. Light bodied with fine, spritzy carbonation. Well and sour to finish with loads of lemon bite, tongue-blistering citric acidity, mild grassy bitterness, some funky sweat, lots of salt. Solid. Refreshingly biting.
