Tire Bite Golden Ale pours a bright golden amber from a 12oz dark brown glass bottle. Head of white foam goes to just under two fingers before settling down to a full carpet of bubbles completely covering the brew. Nose is of damp barley malt, hops, and light alcohol.

Palate is a nice malt with good texture with some sweet notes, balanced with a hops that is more bitter than floral. The next thing the palate senses with this ale, is a grapefruit citrus with the bite of carbonation, blending this brew into a well built beer.

Light, tasty, and refreshing with good eye appeal, Tire Bite Golden Ale by Flying Dog Brewery has it all, good looks and good taste.

Gold color, not enough carbonation for style. Aroma was barely hitting a lemon note, but the kolsch yeast overall didn't drop much on me.

Taste, all over the place, tries, strides for effervescence, but the carbonation won't allow it, instead of a dry finish, this one hits cardboard notes.

No off flavors, no good flavors.

From tasting notes: Pours a straw color with a quickly dissipating head. Not much of a nose. Some sulfur, light malt and a hint of corn. The flavor parellels the aromas except that there is some astringency fom the grain and a little harsh grain in the flavor. This is a little rough.

Smooth, light bodied beer with a Heineken like malt flavor.
