Stoudt's is in my county so it is easy to get this on tap at their brew pub, which is a real nice place to eat by the way.

Like most of their beers, this Gold Lager is very well crafted.

A: It is definitely gold in color with a very white head that fades quickly.

S: The beer smells mildly of bread and lemon. A pleasant but not strong smell.

T: The beer, like many a good Helles has a nice taste combination of malt, citrus and light bitterness. If has a clean, refreshing finish.

M: Moderate feel and carbonation.

D: A very enjoyable beer served cold. It doesn't make you sit up and take notice but it quenches your thirst in a very satisfying way. I've served it at picnics to non-craft drinkers who seemed to enjoy it quitet a bit.

Serving type: on-tap

A superb Helles! Decanted into pint tumbler...so crisp and refreshing...the ultimate session lager...why would you ever mess with some macro-adjuct-crap when, for a few bucks more (and well-worth-it) you can have this!

A - Pale straw gold...1 inch head...awesome lacing...a thin coating of head sticks around...

S - Earthy-herbal hops...biscuits and yeast...excellent!

T - Perfectly balanced...just enough bitterness to keep the malts in check...a little citrusy-lemon peelish tang...creamy bready yeastiness...

M - Smooth and silky...but also crisp and clean...

Ovearll - Reach for this the next time you want a good, easy drinking brew when your watching a game, sitting outside, grilling, or just want a great pennsylvania lager! Enjoy! Cheers!

A - clear, see-through, golden yellow with a thin, bubbly white head that fades to a thin lacing

S - light grains and a nice, pleasant grassy aroma

T - cereal grains, some faint breadiness, a very faint lemony presence, grassy, clean bitter finish

M - clean, crisp, well carbonated, light to medium bodied

This is a nicely built, well crafted, easy-to-drink helles lager. I'm impressed with the depth this beer has considering it's one of the more simplistic styles. This is a very, nice refreshing lager that I wouldn't mind having again.
