Bottle courtesy of Flbh (the wingwoman). Golden amber white head. Smells bready. Tastes bready with a bit of honey. Not the best to be honest but a new country!

Fra 25 cl flaske (takk til Hennning F) på RBHD-samling på Fridtjofen april-15: tidligere på kvelden hadde vi Vex Yellow Monkey fra samme bryggeri, og Golden Ram har llitt mer å by på. Lett uklar gylden med kort skum. Bærtoner i aroma og smak, og litt honningsødme. Slank og middels kort i ettersmaken. På etiketten står det Dark ale, RB sier Amber. Uansett hadde jeg nok greid en hel flaske alene.
