Hook and Ladder Brewing Golden Ale

12oz.

no alc given

The third of four Hook and Ladder offerings that came in my sample pack, this Golden Ale was a nice surprise. It has a bit more color than a typical light Ale, with a creamy foam topping. It has a much deeper body than expected, packed full of sweet malt goodness. It is very smooth overall, with the malt and sweet tones overriding the soft hops. I was also surprised by how well the flavors kept with it on the aftertaste. One of the few light Ales that you can actually taste between sips.

Well done.
