Beer is Essential! This easy drinking golden ale features Vic Secret and Citra hops paired with Skagit Valley Malting's Fritz Pale and fermented with Juice yeast. Look for notes of pineapple mango and orange balance by a bread malt body. It’s essential that you drink this now.

16oz can (dated 5/4/20) poured into 14oz teku. Called a Golden Ale by the brewery. Poured a lightly hazy golden yellow color with 3/4 inch of white head that had moderate retention and low lacing.

Gentle grains and soft hops were at the front of the nose, with some slight sweetness in the background.

Pretty similar on the tongue; the hops had the lead, but the grain provided a solid foundation. The beer was slightly sweet, but still had a tickle of hops on the finish.

The body was light, smooth, crisp, and had a semi-sweet finish.

Drinkability was very nice, I could see grabbing a couple more.

Overall, a solid and enjoyable beer. Grab one if you see it.
