Allegheny Cream Ale

Brewed by Cold Spring Brewery
Style: Cream Ale
Cold Spring, Minnesota USA

WARNING, Not one of the 12 GREATEST BREW! I have to sample all 12, as my wife got this for me and with her not liking ratebeer as it is, I want her to think she did good. The thought counts. Drap

A novel idea. "12 greatest beers of the world". But, no let's make a batch of amber bottle it and put different labels on it. OK, not quite true, but The differences between these beers, even though said to be different style was scary. All would have done well in a amber ale competition.

Man.. I WANTED to like these beers. A great idea to do a multi pack with this theme. The packaging was nice and informative.. and I like for beer to come in pint bottles. ;) But the smell and taste is sour. All the beers in the pack taste alike and have some odd nuclear red/orange color. It smells and tastes foul. I will say that some are less foul than others in this pack... but this isn't one of them. I read here someone saying they would rather drink Budweiser and I scoffed... I no longer scoff.

Good Fucking Christ. That about sums it up, but I was acknowledged that there is a seventy five character minimum to a rating and therefore I will continue you writing this sentance until I reach seventy five. Some beers can be summed up in a few words, there is no need for more brutality.

As with the rest of the beers from this sampler pack - this was terrible. Orangeish pour with a decent head - but the taste is just plain bad or nonexistent - I can’t decide.

Part of the "12 Greatest Brews of the World" sampler pack found at my local Wal-Mart. If this is one of the "best beers", I would hate to try the worst. Actually this wasn’t awful, it just doesn’t really taste like anything. Pours an orange color with a thick foamy head and thin lacing. Aroma is indeed creamy. There was really nothing to the flavor at all, it was mostly sweet creamy carbonation. I guess no flavor is better than bad flavor.
