An old Second Street Brewery favorite, brought back for your enjoyment. Crystal, saaz, and the much coveted cascade hops lend this clean and crisp ale, a subtle, yet complex aroma and finish.

Truly a golden color for this golden ale, I ordered this translucent brew as a set of samples from 2nd Street and began with this one, the lightest of my samples. The smell comes across as floral with slightly sweet tones. The taste has a hoppy bite that lingers as you swallow but doesn't overpower. Normally I don't like very hoppy beers but this one was nicely balanced.

There was virtually no head on my sampler glass. This beer went down smoothly leaving a nice feel in my mouth.
