Remember Golden Halo Blonde Ale from RedRock Brewing? It arrived nearly a year ago to mixed reviews. Some loved the extreme blend of Nobles hops and Pils malt, while others found the bitterness and earthiness too overwhelming.
Personally I liked it, but that damn label really made for some sleepless nights.
Beer Yogi, Kevin Templin has re-invented Golden Halo Blonde Ale and RedRock's art department has provided us with a more tranquil bottle to stare at.
The all new Golden Halo has a bright golden color with subdued malty character and Nobel hop aroma. Its crisp, clean flavor comes from a balance between German malt and Czech hops. It comes in RedRock's perfectly sized 500ml bottle with a 5.8% abv.
The reborn Golden Halo will debut today (10/18/11) at 5pm at RedRock Place (Fashion Place Mall).
Cheers!

Anyone try this yet?
I really didn't mind the old version and I'm looking forward to trying this as well.
I had it last night. It was very good. I had a bottle of the original last weekend to compare. There are definatly similarities, it tastes the same but more mellow and clean. It still has a good hop profile, but not near as potent.
It should have come out a few months ago. It's a great warm weather beer.
