Founders Solid Gold Premium Lager

Founders Solid Gold Premium Lager

Our brewery was built on an attitude of no regrets. An attitude of taking risks to bring the best beer possible to our fellow renegades and rebels. Never brewing to style, but always brewing what we want to drink. Our take on a classic, Solid Gold is a drinkable premium lager brewed with the highest quality ingredients. Challenging what a lager can be? That’s something we won’t regret.

3.0 Canned 06/01/2021 tasted 11/21/2021. Almost gushes out on opening (can directly from fridge). Pours yellow, slight haze. Very mild aroma, not a lot going on. Taste is off dry, light malt grainy taste. Honey-sweet taste is main takeaway. No DMS or diacetyl …. Quite clean, just not a lot going on. Having said that, I like it for a low alcohol beer. I’ll take this over macro any day.
3.0 Gulbrunklar med hvitt skum. Lukter pilsnermalt, korn og noe gjær. Lett. Vannete. Noe søtlig. Karamell, gress og korn. Kort.
4.5 I thought this was a nice smooth lager
2.6 Light bread and slight caramel aroma. Taste is grassy hops, straw, and corn flakes.
3.1 How: Bottle. Where: Systembolaget. Appearance: Golden colour with a white head. Aroma: Malt, citrus, hops, fruit. Body: Medium body and carbonation. Flavour: Malt, fruit, citrus, hops.
2.1 Flaska från SB. En ganska söt lite blommig lager som är trist eftersom den saknar karaktär och smak från så väl humle och malt. Trist att ett så bra eller åtminstone en gång så bra bryggeri brygger sånt här. Usch.
3.2 Pilsnerfärgad klar med vit skum. Doftar och smakar maltigt och lite citrus. Lite grönsaker eller från majsen i eftersmaken som inte är helt gött. Bra beska
3.3 Bottle (355 ml) from Systembolaget. Clear golden, large white head. Bready malt aroma, some vague herbal hops. Dry, medium bitterness.
3.1 Lätt dimmig halmgul med tunt vitt skum. Doftar lite fruktigt, maltigt. Smaken fyllig, lite söt och besk. Eftersmaken hyggligt lång, lite söt och besk, något torr på slutet.
2.9 Gyllengul vätska med vitt skum. Aromer av grape och liten antydan av tallbarr. Inlindat finns även toner av deg. Överraskande tunn maltkropp. Den liksom inte följer med när humletåget sticker iväg.
2.6 Bottle 355ml. Hazy amber, white fluffy head. Well, the abv is not very high, but this is a thin, grainy take on a lager. Taste has a disturbing burnt note. The corn shines through. Citrusy hops.
3.1 Bottled from Systembolaget Golden with a medium head. Grainy and pretty thin. Medium bitterness.
3.0 Golden color, small white head. Aromas of malt, citrus and slight caramel. Taste of malt, citrus and hops.
2.3 En lager i den mer karaktärslösa skolan. Det är möjligt att ana en viss efterbeska men på totalen är den rätt meningslös.
2.6 Aromen skulle säkert kunna komma från en pale lager med en hel del humlearom åt barrskogshållet. Tunn och återhållsam maltsmak, med en del humletoner i bakgrunden.
3.1 Lite tunn i smaken.
3.2 Bottle. Pours a golden color with a white head. Has a fruity malty grainy hoppy aroma. Fruity malty grainy crisp hoppy flavor. Has a fruity malty grainy smooth hoppy finish.
3.7 0,355 l bottle from Systembolaget, Motala. Really nice Pale Lager, suits well with watching soccer
2.3 Malty scent. The taste is slightly malty. Slight bitterness that fills the upper part of the mouth for a decent while. Okay beer. Follow me @ Kung av öl @ Facebook for more pictures and ratings.
3.1 Flaska från systembolaget. Gyllengul öl med vitt skum. Fruktig och maltig med toner av citrus och gräs. Torr avslutning.
3.5 Can from Bee Hop. It pours clear yellow - gold with a decent white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, doughy white bread, biscuit, hay, custard creams, cornbread and grain. The taste is crispy, bitter - sweet, grassy, hay, touch herbal, snap of spice, underpinning sweetness, white bread, biscuit, airy malts, grain, cracker with a dry finish. Average body and average carbonation. Rounded and balanced. Very drinkable. Nice take on the style.
3.7 The smell has lemon, cracker, bread, grass. Hints of sweetness. Pours with a 1 inch white and bubbly head with OK retention... becomes a thick cap within a couple of minutes, and leaves spotty lacing. Heavily carbonated amber-yellow color, darker than your typical AAL. The taste is the lemon, grass, and cracker from the aroma, with a bit of tropical fruit as well. No bitterness to speak of, but a very slight (and I mean VERY slight) tartness or sharpness in the finish. It has an overall refreshing quality that is somewhat hampered by the body of the beer. Speaking of which, the body is more substantial than expected for the style, which lends a bit of a coating to the finish which even the heavy carbonation cannot moderate. The flavors of lemon & grass, backed by cracker & bread are well done. I enjoyed drinking this. Overall, as I said, not quite as refreshing as a typical AAL, due to the lack of crispness and the body of the beer, but it does go down easy and it has much more flavor than the typical AAL. The side of the can says "Puerto Rico". Was this brewed there despite the Founders name on the can? IDK. The label also says "Brewed and Packaged by Founders Brewing Company, Grand Rapids, Michigan," which I note does "by" and not "at". Oh, well, a tasty AAL regardless of its heritage.
2.8 Backlog. Clear gold pour. The mild aroma is mostly grainy malt. The flavor is malty and grainy with mild hops bitterness. It’s well made though to me it’s a near universally bland style.
3.5 Stove pipe can pours out golden straw topped with a white head. Nose is nice light grain some grassy hops. Taste is more of the nice light grain and crisp hops.
3.5 From backlog note. From draft flight at Biermarkt USA on April 5, 2018. Nondescript aroma, clear golden hue, good refreshing bittersweet flavor. Very good indeed, especially for style.
3.2 Smaczne, choć bez rewelacji. Słód, kwiaty, nieco chmielu, goryczka niska do średniej. Jak na standardy stylu to bardzo wyraźna. Profil czysty, bez większych wad.
3.3 W zapachu trochę aromatów słodowych, lekki aromaty chmielowe. W smaku lekka pełnia, smukłość, trochę nut słodowych, lekkie nuty chmielowe, niska goryczka.
3.4 Puszka 568 ml, zakupiona w Browariacie w Katowicach. Wypita 11.12.2020. Barwa złota, lekko opalizująca. Piana biała, średniej wysokości, dość krótkiej trwałości, zostawia odrobinę śladów na szkle. W aromacie umiarkowanie slodowe, fajnie czuć chmiel. Średnia goryczka. Całkiem zaskakująco czyste.
3.1 Złociste z leciutką mgielką piwo. Piana dość wysoka i w miarę trwała. Aromat delikatne nuty chmielowe i słodowe. W smaku podobnie lekka goryczka, duża pijalność. Dobre na ciepłe dni, niezły lager ale nie wybija się zbytnio ponad przeciętność
2.4 Aroma correcto, imagen correcta, luego en está como descartada, muy pobre con un toque de limón y demasiado malta para tan poco amargor. No creo que repita, es un quiero y no puedo.
