Beers similar to Crown Golden Ale

Carlton & United Breweries

Golden Ale·Australia·4.5% ABV·One of 179 Golden Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Crown Golden Ale's malty and floral character. Crown Golden Ale rests on the same Australian malt and Pride of Ringwood hops as the lager of the brand, with Galaxy added on top. The Galaxy brings citrus and a floral, tropical edge to the aroma, while crystal and roasted malts lay soft caramel and a light toast note underneath. Sweet maltiness leads, the bitterness stays restrained and clean at the close. Gold in the glass, medium-light in body.
