Hello beer lovers and welcome to another edition of the
NorCal Beer Blog's brew review.
Tonight’s featured beer is Auburn AleHouse Fool's Gold Pale
Ale. I had the chance to try a number of their beers on tap a year ago and was
happy to find a few bottles to bring home recently (strictly for review
purposes).
From the Auburn AleHouse website: “The
Pale that Packs a punch!
Foolish amounts of North America’s finest pale malted barley
infused with a ton of Pacific Northwest hops sets this west coast strong pale
ale apart from others. Our pale pours bright golden in color with a fragrant,
dense, foamy head. Sharp, yet well balanced on the palate, Fool’s Gold is not
your ordinary Pale Ale. Don’t let the golden color fool you, this nugget weighs
in at 7.8% abv.”
Let’s get started!
Appearance: Pours
a golden orange color with a nice off-white head and good lacing.
Aroma: Pine,
citrus, biscuit and toasted malts.
Taste: Pine and
citrus hops, biscuit and toasted malts and a slight caramel malt sweetness.
Overall:
Drinkable and delicious, Auburn AleHouse Fool's Gold Pale Ale has great flavor
and drinks more like an IPA than a Pale Ale. I recommend this 7.8% offering. Well done!
Cheers!
Mark Harvey
