Draught @ Brewpub: This one pours a clear golden color with a small white head on it. The aroma is slightly grassy and earthy. The taste is of lighter malts and a hint of the grassy hops. A very clean and refreshing brew. This one is very easy to drink.

Had on tap at the brewery. The City Gold had a gold-amber appearance, indeed, with some fast lacing as well. Malty smells were definitely sensed, some grassy textures as well. The drink had a slight bittersweet taste but it was not too overpowering. Medium body gave it some good carbonation, but it was a bit too watery and thin at the same time. Overall, a pretty solid drink.

Pours golden amber, as the name suggests. Minimal head with little to no lacing. There was no smell at all, so hard to rate that end. At least it didn't smell bad. Taste was crisp with citrus notes, no bitterness whatsoever. Mouthfeel was very good, again crisp and clean. It is a very refreshing summer brew.

Poured a decent gold with a quickly dissipating heas. Mainly malty notes, especially as the brew warmed. Initially sweet, the brew ended in a light tartness. Body was light to medium, with a mouthfeeel that was a tad dry, but still smooth. Fairly drinkable, but ovearll not spectacular.
