Commercial Description:
This copper colored ale is a silky, creamy dream. It’s malty, very mildly hopped, and lightly sweet, with a delicate hint of spice for that oh-so-drinkable, extra velvety flavor. A cool beer for the heat, whatever your latitude!

Murky amber color with a quick head. Malty, fruity aroma. Drinkable with a light to medium body, surprisingly creamy and filling. Flavor is a mix of malts, spices and hops. Starts sweet-ends dry. Nice summer quencher, very satisfying.

sample glass from the brewery tap. Light amber in the glass. Faded hops and earthy tones in the nose. Flavor mostly runs by you as it goes down. Probably made for the beer drinkers wife. Goes down smooth with not a lot of flavor.

On tap. Clear amber golden with an off-white head. Lightly sweet roasted malt in the nose. Medium body with strange toffee-like accents - maple syrup? No bitterness. Strange brew indeed. 120709

Delicious hazy copper cream ale, this seasonal is smooth, light, dry, and very drinkable. The rating is low on ratebeer (big shock) but I notice it’s the 12 highest rated cream ale. So, what does that say about the rating system? or the reviews who dont give this excellent example of this style very high marks. If you haven’t tried it, give it a try. I have to agree with a recent reviewer, though, it’s a bit creamy and sweet for a summer beer..perfect autumn, though.

Single bottle from the Binny’s in Orland Park, IL: This poured a clewar copper body with a smallish off-white head and a little spotty lacing. The aroma has a sweet fruitiness with toasty grain and a dollop of caramel. The flavor is that of slightly soured caramel apples with a sprtiz of tonic water. Not something I’d care to repeat.

on tap, pours a light amber with next to no head. Aroma is light and sugary with a little bit of malt shining through. Very sweet maltyness with light carbonation, ends dry.

From tap at Jupiter. Pours clear and golden deep orange with a small white head. Light fruity and roasted malt aroma. Dry malty and slight flat flavoured. Light fruity touch. Vague wooden touch to it. Dry and slight flat malty finish
