I tried this beer during the 1980s when they launched a large Canadian campaign to get beer drinkers drinking Golden again. The campaign did nothing more than make fun of the beer's name (Moslen Godlen, Molden Golson, etc). This was also the brand featured on all The Molson's commercials. Sadly, this beer is no longer part of Molson Canada's lineup (as per their website). Anyway, the last time I tried this, the beer was golden in colour with almost no head. The aroma was weak with a grassy tinge to it. It was very crisp and clear on the tongue with weak carbonation. The taste was also weak, not watery, but not very beer-y either.
It eventually went on to be associated with 'Old Man's beer' along with Labatt 50. I would give a better rating, but the beer was just not that memorable. Not bad, but not worth a second taste.

Pours a light amber with a one finger white head that goes down quickly. Light carbonation. Aroma is non-existent. taste is mildly malty and sweet. Almost taste like a swimming pool smells. Fuck off you hoser!

Clear yellow with small white foam head. Smells like pilsener, tastes like pilsener, nothing more. Had anticipated a better beer when its colled Golden. (Houston 201205)

pours a yellow to light amber with a small white thin head that quickly disapates leaving no lace. The aroma is a little skunky but not too bad with a few mellow spices. The taste is malt and some mild bready notes, not much here. The mouthfeel is sparkling and refreshing, smooth and pleasant but also thin and watery.

This was my old reliable in the 80s. Consumed way to much then in a short time. Trying again. Seems more watery than I remember. Thin. Still has the hoppy, malt flavor with a touch of citrus. Overall still likable.

Another one of my go to beers in the 80s as this was one of the brands that Molson was really pushing. I see it more often in America than Canada, and I have to try it because it makes me feel like I'm home

One doesn't see this beer in Canada all that often - but when it's available, one needs to try it. Colour - pale gold, clear, white head. Aroma - grainy malt, some hops. Mouthfeel - watery. Flavour - grainy malt, hops. Overall - weaker than average

Aroma was a little skunky, but not bad. Golden yellow body, not much head or lace. Mouthfeel has a slight carbonation bite. Flavor of malt and some bread. Overall it o.k. for what it is.

This is a sub-average beer, but not too bad.....drinkable. More of a daytime, lawnmower beer. I prefer it to the American lagers, but still would rather have Molson Ice, or their Export Ale....or better yet, Labatts Blue!

can be a decent, crisp beer when it's not skunky, but unfortunately that it not very often. not enough good to overcome this. not at all recommended.

Pours a true, crisp golden with thick white head and excellent lace. General smell of malts and hops, nothing stellar. The mouthfeel is smooth, although thin and watery. Flavor of malts, light hops, citrus, and tart. Average character, pretty good drinking.
