New Belgium Hoptober Golden Ale Review

New Belgium Hoptober Golden AleGolden Ale [Type 17] 6% ABV

Hoptober is like a harvest in a bottle. New Belgium mixed in five hops and four malts to great this Fall seasonal brew. As the name implies, this is a hoppy beer, but it is not an IPA. The hop flavors predominate the beer's profile. The malts aren't absent, just hiding.

Pours a beautiful golden color with a white head.

A pretty good seasonal beer. I like it because many Fall beers are so malty and heavy that this beer is a nice contrast. The Magistra still prefers pumpkin beers tho.
