This brew pours a clear orange-gold color with a medium foamy white head that diminishes steadily. Rings of lacing on the glass. The aroma consists of hops and fruit, plus some sweet malt. Medium body and moderately bitter with flavors of grassy hops, citrus and malt. The finish is hoppy with a lingering grapefruit aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

From a 500ml bottle on 21/5/2012. Pours a clear light golden with a medium head. Has an exquisite aroma of apricot, peach and passionfruit, along with strong floral and hoppy notes. The flavours include light caramel malt, citrus and stone fruits, and a firm citric hoppy bitterness with a touch of grapefruit. Has a slightly vinous character. Light bodied and very refreshing, but more IPA than golden ale in terms of flavour. Top stuff.

Bottle brought back by Wombata. Bright, clear golden color with a tight head. Big, clean hop nose, honey malts, citrus. Great nose. Minerally flavor, crackers, grass, hay. Strong bitterness. Not much malt. A bit thin. Nose and mouth are very different in this beer. Fun stuff.

Bottle. Pours with a crystal clear golden-yellow hued body with a medium sized white head. Decent retention. Aromas are hoppy, tropical fruits, herbal, grassy and spicy. Some lime zest and pepper. Light bready malt profile underneath. Light fruitiness that could be esters, but most likely hops. Yeast character seems clean. Flavors are medium bitter at front, and gets to be a bit stronger and a bit soapy towards the finish. Citrusy, zesty, some tropical fruit, heavy grassy component. Light bready and straw like malt. Clean and blunt in the finish. Lively bubbles, dry and a bit thin. Lingering bitter. Can get a touch metallic and even a bit astringent, but not overbearing. Decent, easy drinking hoppy beers. I wish more American made pale ales were closer to this (hoppy blonds), instead of highly crystal laden.
