Introducing the Fresh Hopped Golden Ale from Three Boys Brewery. This Blonde Ale/Golden Ale boasts a vibrant hop profile, bursting with pungent citrus, juicy tropical fruits like mango, passionfruit, and pineapple, along with hints of floral notes and a touch of pine resin. The appearance is a golden-amber hue with a brilliant clarity and a creamy white head that forms a delicate lace. The flavor is medium-bodied and well-balanced, with the initial burst of hop flavors mirroring the aroma and delivering a medley of citrus and tropical sensations. The malty sweetness provides a solid foundation, while a slight bitterness lingers on the palate. The mouthfeel is smooth and refreshing, with a moderate carbonation that enhances the crispness and lightness. The finish is clean and crisp, with a lingering hoppiness that leaves a pleasant dryness. Brewed with fresh hops grown locally in New Zealand, this beer offers an unparalleled freshness and aroma. It pairs well with light and fresh dishes such as salads, seafood, and grilled meats.
