SULLIVAN’S IRISH GOLD
Brisk English-styled pale ale from Ireland coalesces amber grained cereal malt sweetness, dewy peat mossing and toasted bread crusting, recalling an Irish Red Ale in many aspects. Ascending East Kent Golding hop herbage brings snappy bitterness to slightly caramelized barley roast finish.
MONTAUK THE SURF BEER GOLDEN ALE
Crisply clean beach time light body with salty lemon spritz prickling dry pale malting. Soft-toned orange, grapefruit and pineapple tang picks up herb-spiced tingle. Sessionable.
RUSH GOLDEN ALE
Historic Canadian band, Rush, has now moved into brewing. This mildly rye-malted moderation contrasts dry orange spicing and slight black tea bittering against glass-candied sugaring and gluey paper pasting. Middle of the road and unassuming.
SINGLECUT THE NICE ALE
On tap at Ambulance, new dry-bodied year rounder maintains easygoing appeal as lemony licks reach grassy hop astringency above toasty mineral grained pilsner malting. Serve to lighter indiscriminate proletariats.
PORT CITY BEACH DRIVE GOLDEN ALE
Nearly nebulous straw clear moderation with not enough floral yellow grapefruit and mandarin orange zesting to overcome astringent hop peppering and bland seltzer spritz. At least its lightly toasted white bread Pilsner-Vienna malt base sits pretty.
LORD HOBO FREEBIRD ALE
Easygoing golden ale nestles muted floral citrus spicing with sugary pale malting to its soft biscuity base. Resinous wood-dried Simcoe/Amarillo hop pungency stays mild.
14TH STAR RECRUIT GOLDEN ALE
On tap at Growler & Gill, crisply clean moderation allows peppery herbal spicing to perk up mild lemon tingle and dry maize respite over crusty buttered bread spine in slightly engaging manner.
FLYING DOG MIMOSA BEER
Soft-toned Citra-hopped mimosa knockoff brings light lemon-soured orange peel bittering to spritzy champagne souring. Wispy banana-clove illusions settle beneath alongside delicate oats-dried wheat malts. Easygoing orange-juiced champagne-fizzed mimosa cocktail alternative.
ARMADILLO BRUNCH MONEY
On tap at Taverna Rossa, respectable stout-inspired golden ale succulently combines creamed coffee capaciousness with sweet maple-sugared vanilla and bittersweet black chocolate malting for rich pancake-battered brunch time dessert. Ancillary toasted coconut illusions waver.
SHMALTZ HANUKKAH IN NAPA IN JULY GOLDEN ALE W/ COCOA NIBS: CABERNET BARRELS
On tap at The Oath, silkily dry cabernet wining gains dainty cocoa nibs adjunct and tart citrus acidity above groaty barnyard acridity. Cabernet Sauvignon barrel aging leaves lightly vinous red grape tannins upon dry Scotch malting.
HARPOON SWEET SPOT GOLDEN ALE
On tap at The Oath, middling golden ale brings mild floral-spiced fruiting to subtle herbal hops and white wheat base. Lemon meringue, grapefruit, banana and mango tropicalia needs deeper penetration.
