Bottle Gold from Sapwood Cellars Brewery (Columbia, United States 🇺🇸)

7.3/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7

Aroma has notes of dough, grass, asparagus, chalk. Taste has a firm herbal bitterness backed by unobtrusive bready malt sweetness, finishing dry. If it's a heller bock, it's much more bitter than the style calls for. If it's an "imperial pilsner," I suppose it fits, although it's much more bitter than most pilsners. Has a lingering light alcohol burn.

Six pack from Super 1. Aroma is all grape. Taste is slightly sweet and fairly tart and tastes like carbonated grape juice with a grainy finish. Watery highly carbonated mouthfeel.

Four pack from Smokes and Suds. Aroma has notes of cocoa, chocolate, marshmallow, coconut. Taste is bittersweet and roasty with flavors like the aroma. I like that it’s not overly sweet and has a firm bitterness. Mouthfeel is velvety.

Six pack from Super 1. Aroma is peachy, piney, citrus peel, crackery malt. Taste has a moderate pithy bitterness and very little sweetness, especially for a hazy. Peachy flavor is there, but somewhat subtle. Mostly tastes like a straight IPA.
