This is a very popular question, as many Delta 8 THC products vary in color. Luckily, the answer is very easy. The process of converting CBD Isolate to Delta 8 involves heating, and the heat at which it is converted dictates the color of the Distillate. The Gold distillate requires a lot more heating to make. The reason to make one or the other is simply a case of preference. Some brands prefer gold to look like Delta 9 THC, some like clear and rose to be identified as Delta 8 THC.
Overall, the effects and benefits would be the same for both Gold and Clear Delta 8. Clear Delta 8 THC may have a rose red tint, which is perfectly ok. And in fact, even a good thing. Because some brands use bleach to make their products completely clear. Which could be very bad for you, of course.
