Bottle from Belmont. What a shot to the nose/teeth! Smells like potent peach jam! Tastes of the same with the added bonus of sour ale and lima beans. Just flat-out strange. Like no cream ale I have had.

12oz bottle. Pours a hazy, light peachy apricot color; white head with good retention and fine-bubbled lacing. Crisp aroma with some honey, oranges and light minerals; kind of like an orange creamsicle. Medium mouthfeel: lively carbonation; crisp mineral bitterness, citrus, and a touch of bready / toasty maltiness; crisp and slightly creamy presence in the mouth; drinkable cream ale, if a touch of overripe fruit. Medium finish: toasty malts, creaminess, and overripe oranges.

Semi cloudy orangish yellow with a thin ff-white head. Smell is sugary sweet and honey and flowers. Flavor is sweet and juice like. High carbonation. It just reminds me of a carbonated juice. Not bad, just not really my thing.

Sampled 10/21/2008. This Cream Ale pours a slightly cloudy orange gold color from a 12 oz bottle. Small sized white foamy head with decent retention. The aroma is fruity and sweet with a touch of floral hops. A medium bodied cream ale. The malts are fruity and sweet. The hops are floral and earthy. Nice balance. Good carbonation. It has the kind of yeasty creamy mouthfeel. This is a very nicely done cream ale. Best cream ale I have had in long time. Light and refreshing. Crisp and clean. Good summer beer. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and crisp. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.

Pours a cloudy yellow with small white head. Sour fruit in the aroma. Creamy and drinkable, smooth with a dry finish.

I don’t know why decided to try this, because it was there. The cream is like alcohol, and not beneficially.

Bottle... Poured a vibrant yellow that was slightly hazy and a thin white head. Aroma was insanely tart and sweet, similar to a Sour Ale. Some grain and bread like yeast flavors and some hops for a mild bitterness. Finished kind of floral and candy-like.

12oz bottle acquired in trade with jake65 (thanks!). Poured a medium and clear golden color with a large sized head. Aromas of lots of grains, very husky, somewhat earthy, and salty. Tastes of grains and sweet malts.
