Presentation: Sampled at Fernandes Brewery Tap in Wakefield, West Yorkshire. Plain white rectangular pumpclip has the words Goldie Hops. Listed at 3.4% ABV.
Appearance: Pale golden yellow with creamy white body as it settled, highly carbonated. Once at rest the bleached white head which had a finger thick tight creamy head with good retention throughout.
Nose: Biscuit malts in the background but lots of hops and floral aspects. Refreshingly crisp with an overall character that is very fruity.
Taste: Delicate to say the least, feint whiffs of hops and a little sweet Munich like malts. Its all very low key, weak flavors and a taste profile that seems watered down.
Mouthfeel: Whilst the conditioning was perfect it could not do anything to offset the very thin body and weak feel that the Goldie Hops presented.
Drinkability: A 3.4% brew is typically pitched nicely into the Session arena, but this one is a little too thin and the tastes far too weak to maintain interest in the long term.
Overall: Im a big fan of Fernandes beers, indeed, I spent many hours drinking their fines wares when I lived in England, but this one was a disappointment. Just to thin and not enough hops.
