Pre GBBF tasting at Chris and Ruth’s. Dusty bottle from the Chris O archives. Clear amber beer, tidy pale cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry, modest fine carbonation. Sweet malts, some caramel, tasting a little oxidised tired. Mild dried fruits. Light finis. Spicy linger. Okay.

750ml bottle. Slightly cloudy, deep golden colour with average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, off-white head. Fruity, slightly floral yeasty aroma, notes of apricot, dried yellow stone fruit, a slightly bready touch. Taste is slightly dry, subtle sweetness, hints of apricot, dried yellow stone fruit, slightly bready undertones. Mild and balanced.

Very light haze on this gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is light and semi dry, modest fine carbonation. Airy pale malts, some sweetness. Mild orange and a trace of spice. Dry finish. It’s clean but a tad dry and a bit dull.

Lightly hazy deep gold beer, big cream colour head. Palate is airy and semi dry, good fine carbonation. Malts are smooth with a little creamy sweetness. Mild spice and light dried fruits. Semi sweet floralness. Smooth semi dry finish. The whole is greater than the sum of the parts here. Comes together very well.

Bomber from Total Wine in Sacramento, CA. Pours gold with a rather creamy near-white head. Aroma of citrus, light stone and tropical fruits. Med body or so. Flavor is bitter citrus and lots of fruit. The bitter is intense, and the fruit is delightful. Really nice at the end of a hot day.
