Beers similar to XXXX Gold

Mid-Strength Lager·Australia·3.5% ABV·One of 27 Mid-Strength Lagers in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share XXXX Gold's malty and grassy character. XXXX Gold has been brewed since 1991 as the mid-strength counterpart to XXXX Bitter. Golden Cluster hops, Australian malted barley and cane sugar give a pale malt base with a soft sweetness and hints of honey and biscuit. The hop character stays low and rounded, showing gentle floral and grassy notes rather than sharp bitterness. Light in body and smooth through the middle, it finishes short and clean with a mild bitterness.
