A golden ale to lift your spirits. Light bodied and slightly malt forward, with superior taste and a clean finish. Because nothing beats a great smile.

Poured from 12 oz bottle into pint glass. Thin white head, golden color. Mild aroma that is malt dominate. Mouthfeel is light and crisp. Flavor combines light toasted malt, cereal grain, mild hop presence. Overall: not offensive, but not that interesting either.

Thousand Smiles pours a golden color, with a small, barley lacing head. Nice rich, creamy aroma, crisp malts, hints of fresh crops. Flavor is strong, creamy, crisp and malty, with a few off flavors mixed in, and a slight bitterness. Good body and feel. Overall, strong tasting Golden ale, some off flavors, and the bitterness feels off too.

L: clear pale yellow with a loose white head that quickly dissolves into a film
S: mild citrus and crackers
T: mild lemon and dry crackers
O: not bad, light, kind of tart. This would be refreshing on a summer day. Was a beer club selection, but I probably won't but it

This beer poured a very clear amber yellow with nice carbonation and a frothy white head. It has moderate lacing. The aroma, although somewhat mild, is primarily pineapple and citrus. The taste is very clean and crisp. It is dry, malty and refreshing. This is an excellent session beer!

Clear pour, decent foam, a slightly sweet enjoyable aftertaste. The aroma doesn't do justice to the taste. This blonde has an interesting initial flavor that is more tart than I'd expect, but it works as balance.
